Now this is a good one!
The Daily Telegraph reports that Helix is producing a tamper-proof version of the pencil sharpener after reports that pupils unscrew blades and use them to attack classmates. Some head teachers have been forced to ban them altogether.
Helix's new pencil sharpeners will have a special screw head which cannot be removed, even with a screwdriver.
Chris Keates, general secretary of NASUWT said, "Anything can potentially become an offensive weapon and teachers and schools are more and more aware of the rishs of pupils misusing equipment."
