The Government has announced plans to make all secondary schools join behaviour partnerships, as part of a shake-up for pupils who have been excluded.
Speaking at the NASUWT conference in Birmingham, schools secretary Ed Balls also announced plans to tackle cyber-bullying of teachers.
Mr Balls said all schools, including new academies should be required to be part of behaviour partnerships and that he planned to write to all directors of children's services to make sure the additional £109.5m for parent support advisers is targeted at schools with the greatest need.
He also announced plans for a White Paper to create more alternative provisions, such as high quality vocational training and studio schools.
'A key objective of behaviour partnerships is early intervention - to identify children at risk of exclusion or truancy and to intervene before the problem gets too bad,' said Mr Balls.
'Effective early intervention and the development of high quality alternatives to mainstream school - where some pupils will spend only a short period of time - is the right way to help young people get back on track.
'Where pupils are so disruptive that they have to leave the mainstream sector, it's important that they get support that puts them back on track,' he said.
