Wow! I think back to my school days and the cane was a regular happening in primary school. I also remember chalk and chalkboard dusters as well as pens being thrown at students. We wouldn’t have had many teachers left if they were all charged for assault

I’m guessing that most likely isn’t any photographic proof of bruises or anything.
What a pity. It would have made the allegations that much easier to prove and easier for the children rather than the possiblity of them having to appear in court. Hopefully the court will accept statements signed by the children.

It’s sounds like decisive action was taken – good!

It’s just unbelievable that this happens in schools in this day and age. There’s so much scrutiny involved with these job positions, and still try sneak through

It’s good they believed the children.

Geez! What was she thinking?! So glad the kids who complained were taken seriously.

Good on the children for speaking up and glad their stories were heard.
A teacher should feel her/himself when crossing a line and seek another job. Teaching our young children comes with many high responsibilities.

Good on the kids for speaking out. Terrible woman!

Luckily that the children spoke out. Sometimes they are so afraid that they don’t dare to say a single word.

That’s concerning to have a teacher in charge assault so many young children. At least the police are now involved and hopefully justice is served.

That’s terrible! Having been a Primary Teacher and a Teacher’s Aide myself I am well aware that there are teachers who carry on teaching for far too long. If you don’t love it or the kids, get out!
