No one wants him to behave badly at school. But the OP thinks the behavoir is a symptom and treating the cause is more effective long term than treating the symptom. Also with a strong willed kids threats don't work, the just make things worse as they simply don't care at that point. A parent may know when it will work but a teacher won't.
