Traditionally, with respect to school discipline, educators have had two distinct aims: to help create and maintain a safe, orderly, and positive learning environment, which often requires the use of discipline to correct misbehavior, and to teach or develop self-discipline. Both aims are equally important and should always be included in the development and evaluation of school discipline practices. Therefore, this paper x-rays the meaning of discipline, development of self-discipline, goals of effective discipline. Also the developmental approaches to effective discipline were equally looked at and conclusion drawn.
