Disciplining a teacher with "physical impact" that left a student with bruises on both legs

On November 29, Mr. Nguyen Huu Sau, Head of the Department of Education and Training of Duy Xuyen district (Quang Nam province), said that Le Quy Don Secondary School (Duy Xuyen district) decided to issue a disciplinary warning to Ms. TTE - the homeroom teacher of grade 6 of the school for beating a student, causing bruises on both legs.

According to Mr. Sau, after the incident, Ms. E. wrote a self-criticism accepting the disciplinary action of reprimand. However, the school's disciplinary board met, considered and unanimously voted for a warning.

Previously, as reported by Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper, a parent in Duy Xuyen district was upset and complained that his son, a 6th grade student at Le Quy Don Secondary School, was beaten by Ms. E., causing bruises on both legs.

Through investigation, during physical education class, two 6th grade students of Le Quy Don School had a conflict with each other, in which the student who was beaten accidentally broke a stick and hit his friend, leaving a mark on his back.

After the incident, Ms. E. (the homeroom teacher of the two students) used a ruler to hit the soft tissue of the two students' legs, causing bruising.
