12-Year-Old Student Suspended for Dealing Junk Food at School


News Of Da Day :)


UK: 12-year-old Joel Bradley has been suspended after the school caught him selling junk food for a second time. Joel was reportedly marking up his wares as much as 50 pence per item and making up to £15 per day..


"We are a healthy school... If parents are not happy then they are perfectly free to take their children to a school that allows pupils to sell these things and allows a father to sell them outside on the pavement," said head teacher Dave Forshaw.
