Susan de Pear argues that disaffected and excluded pupils are too often blamed for their own difficulties. By interviewing and analysing the responses of such students, she comes to the conclusion that had teaching and learning styles been more sensitively addressed earlier in their careers, most subsequent problems would have been ironed out. This article sits comfortably with the views presented elsewhere in this issue by Banner and Rayner.
