A female teacher is under investigation for alleged child abuse at a school in Pattalung‘s Pa Phayom district.

 

The investigations follow reports that the teacher hit the back of a five year old boy, leaving visible bruises, after he accidentally scratched her car. The incident came to light when the boy’s parents lodged a formal complaint at the local police station, after noticing the bruises when they took him home.

 

In an update provided today, Pattalung Children and Families’ Home officials, alongside local school and district administrators, met at Wat Khlong Yai School, where the incident allegedly occurred. The school’s director, Phasakorn Nunpan, confirmed that the teacher in question has been temporarily reassigned to another district pending the investigation’s outcome. The teacher admitted to striking the boy twice, according to Phasakorn.

 

As part of the procedure, the Pattalung Children and Families’ Home joined the boy’s parents in filing the formal complaint and provided psychological support to the young boy. Pattalung Education Area Office 1 further commented that if the investigation finds the teacher guilty, disciplinary actions could range from salary cuts to termination, depending on the severity of the misconduct, reported KhaoSod.

Toucha my car you're gonna pay.

Maybe you have an active post for bad teachers like they have for the Police in many countries if a teacher hit a five-year-old child, that would be fired on the spot. TIT.

Toucha my Kid You're gonna pay too. 

I love my car. A work of art. She can plead temporary insanity. I doubt she would hit a kid under other circumstances if she has no record of abuse. 

How can you keep your teachers' license after  admitting to assauting a 5 year old student? She should not be able to walk away from this and join another school. It's refreshing to see the name of the school, for all to see, plastered across the wall!

If that was my kid, her car would end up needing to be replaced, it would be a write off, as she needs to be written of from ever being a teacher, and sod the consequents.

What was 5 year old doing anywhere near her car in the first place ???

Why are 5 year olds permitted in area's where there are cars ?

 

The school has also failed to protect the children... next at this school will we read of a 'teacher accidentally reverses over 5 year old' ???

 

 

There are a lot of wrongs here.... mostly the school itself for enabling such a situation to exist in the first place. 

 

'Transferred to another district.'

 

Like the paedophile priests. Shocking.

This evil woman hit a small child so hard that she bruised his back and they transfer her to "help out"  another school district where the parents there obviously don't want her and where she is free to abuse other children. What disgusting behaviour!  

 

She should be suspended immediately and, if found guilty, she should be fired and have her teacher's licence revoked for life in addition to criminal penalties for assault of a minor.

It is a temple school. Free education for the poorest of the poor Buddhists.  It is assumed the parents have no rights. The teacher probably transferred to another temple school where the parents and children also have no rights and have this dirtbag imposed on them.
