Methodology
The interview was conducted to six different people from four categories:
However, the participants were all signed consent form to be interviewed and
the interviewer was taking notes by hand through the conversation, and by the
end of interview, the interviewer summarised key comments and ideas to the
participants. The topic was “why do young students misbehave at school”. All
participants have been asked this question and they are required to elaborate
their opinions and ideas further more by examples. The interview was not
when they answered the first or second question; they expressed their answer
without thinking. However, after a few questions, when they are asked to
elaborate answers in-depth, they started to treat this interview more formally
Discussion
The most three common answers that provided by all participants on students’
misbehave at school topic are students seek attention from teachers and
others peers; students feel bored from the learning content and activities;
students are challenging authority and craving for more control in the
attention from their teacher because they want praise and compliment. Nighty

with every student, make them feel safe like home, students are less likely to
misbehave at school.
Moreover, participants B and C have suggested that students might feel bore
with class activities or content, or they might have troubles to understand the
curriculum, then they are more likely to misbehave and distracted other
students. It is a method for students to seek attention. Alter, Walker & Landers
(2013) pointed out that off task is the most regularly and problematic
work, they started to involve verbal disruption and aggressive behaviours. For
example, when a family is having gathering dinner with relatives and friends,
adults are all talking about finance and politics, older children are talking
about idols and dramas, one toddler only have toys to company with;
laughing without looking at him, he will definitely cry out loud and break things
to show his displeasure and seek attention from parents. Students are
experiencing same situation, but the context is in school, the most reliable
more rules and disciplines in the classroom. For example, they suggested that
warning letter or call their parents. However, Sullivan, Johnson, Owens &
Conway (2014) argues that the mainstream rules and policies related to
student behaviour is only locate to the “individual problem student” rather than
to consider the whole context of classroom, there are may other factors that

Lastly, participant D has suggested that both parents and teachers should
Parents should pay more attention on their children’s discipline, they should
seek attention from other people. However, there are lots of outcomes and
why that student misbehaves, but teachers have the responsibility to find out
the outcome and factor to cause student misbehaves, and teachers also
important, both teachers and students form part of education. Teachers are
student, no matter students’ age, gender, social background and status, every
student at school is equally same and they are required to treat them same.
Therefore, teachers are always expected to be patient and positive when they
are in teaching role; they are required to understand students’ cognitive and
