Zero tolerance (n.) 零容忍（Zero tolerance）是指嚴格禁止某種行為的一種規定，而違反此規定的人必須接受嚴厲處罰的一種政策。此種規定可以是國家層級的，可以是地區層級的，也可以是特定層級的，如學校。這裡所稱的零容忍，專指學校對於某種校園暴力行為所採取的強制禁止與立即處罰的政策。
零容忍原指不容質 疑或妥協的法律規定，任何人只要違反此一法律規定，就必須立即接受嚴厲的制裁，毫無保留的餘地和迴旋的空間。在教育領域中，由於學生的學習權受到憲法的保 障，所以傳統上對於校園中學生的暴力行為，都採取容忍的態度，期望透過教育的途徑，導正學生的偏差概念與行為舉止。但自1990 年 代以來，美、加校園暴力與犯罪事件仍然頻傳，雖然統計顯示在數量、頻率上不再攀升，但在暴力與犯罪對象上有擴大到教師、社區人士的現象，而在暴力與犯罪類 型上有變得更兇殘、更致命的趨勢，不僅影響校園學習環境的安全，而且已危及校園師生以及社區民眾的生命安全，到達不能容忍必須立即阻止的地步，所以零容忍 的政策便在校園中應運而生。
在美、加等國的校 園暴力與犯罪事件當中，以槍枝、毒品的氾濫以及酗酒為影響校園安全最重大的因素。校園中曾經發生學生攜帶槍械射殺校長、老師、同學的事件，而校園中學生集 體吸食毒品、販賣毒品的情形也經常出現，酗酒行為所引發的槍擊與性侵害事件令人怵目驚心。為了維護校園的安全與紀律，多數公立學校開始採取零容忍、穿制 服、訪客簽名、使用金屬探測器、警察站崗、講授防制暴力課程、驗血與驗尿等政策與措施。
絕大多數的學校對 槍械以及刀、劍等武器採取零容忍政策，其次是在酗酒和毒品方面採取此政策，吸食大麻也在零容忍政策之列。換言之，這些行為是學校或是學區規定禁止的事項， 而且明定違反規定必須要受到的懲處，學生違規一經發現或查獲，便會立即遭到制裁，包括禁止上學、甚或退學處分。由於處分嚴格，所以教育學者對此頗有微詞。
從教育的角度來 看，學生犯錯學校應該提供改過向善的機會，但在校園暴力風聲鶴唳的美、加等國，零容忍的政策應是解決校園風暴的一種手段，也是過渡時期的階段性措施，目的 在建立校園的自我防衛機制，使校園暴力與犯罪事件無從發生，但是如何化解學生暴戾之氣，應該才是根本解決之道。
A zero tolerance policy is one which imposes strict punishment for infractions of a stated rule, with the intention of eliminating undesirable conduct. [1] [2] [3] Zero-tolerance policies forbid persons in positions of authority from exercising discretion or changing punishments to fit the circumstances subjectively; they are required to impose a pre-determined punishment regardless of individual culpability, extenuating circumstances, or history. This pre-determined punishment, whether mild or severe, is always meted out.
Zero-tolerance policies are studied in criminology and are common in formal and informal policing systems around the world. The policies also appear in informal situations where there may be sexual harassment or Internet misuse in educational and workplace environments. In 2014, the mass incarceration in the United States based upon minor offenses has resulted in an outcry on the use of zero tolerance in schools and communities. [4] [5]
Little evidence supports the claimed effectiveness of zero-tolerance policies. [6] One underlying problem is that there are a great many reasons why people hesitate to intervene, or to report behavior they find to be unacceptable or unlawful. Zero-tolerance policies address, at best, only a few of these reasons. [7]
