If we can educate the disruptive kids to behave and become useful members of society then it will make life better for all of us.

As you said they should be treated differently, not preferentially as they are now. There is no longer any deterent for misbehaviour in schools, as the schools them selves are constantly haranged by the newest social experimentationalists. Why therefore should the good kids in school strive so hard to achieve when all around them, in school and out, the latest Jade Goody or Michael Carroll is receiving more attention, money and respect than they ever will with their 9-5 mon-fri jobs.
