I found this was mostly a problem with school administration. You don't get enough support from the admin to come by and take a student to the office or out of the classroom if they're being disruptive. They want students only in their overcrowded classrooms and no support staff to cut down on costs. At a better funded school it's easy to phone the office and have someone take a student out to calm down or for a short detention but at the lower end public schools you're on your own to try and deal with everything that might happen in the school day, and so anything that happens you have to personally attend to which ends up eating into your class time or energy.
