It is not only pupils from Patcham High who are capable of "mindless yobbishness" on buses (The Argus, May 16). I've witnessed such things from pupils across Brighton and Hove.
Brighton and Hove Bus Company has made little attempt to curb this bad behaviour from a small minority of students. Perhaps Roger French would like to take charge of what his staff are doing, instead of pointing fingers?
The school does "instil a sense of responsibility" (witnessed first hand) in its students in regular assemblies and theme days.
Don't shunt responsibility solely onto the school, as it is a mixture between what parents teach their children and what the school teaches children. Is it not the main responsibility of a parent to ensure that their children have good morals and manners?
