North Ayrshire schools see a significant surge in aggression and violence incidents, with numbers rising by over 60% in the past four years. Council figures show 576 cases in 2025. Former Tory leader Tom Marshall raised concerns with education cabinet member Margaret Johnson, who attributed the rise to better reporting, pandemic effects, and primary school issues. Marshall questioned reporting improvements and sought concrete steps to reduce incidents. Johnson promised more details on reduction efforts to ensure safer school environments.
