Teacher used a ruler to hit a first grader on the head

Lao Cai: A teacher at Xuan Thuong Primary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities was suspended from teaching after admitting to using a ruler to hit a first-grade student on the head and hands.

Lao Cai Department of Education and Training said on the morning of May 19 that the female teacher was suspended to clarify her violation of teaching standards.

The incident occurred in March but was only discovered after a clip went viral on social media on May 11. In the clip, the teacher uses a ruler to hit the student’s hands and head. The incident was determined to have taken place during class time in class 1C, Vanh school, Xuan Thuong Primary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities, Bao Yen district.

According to the Department representative, the teacher said that due to lack of experience and pressure to improve teaching quality, she had acted in an unprofessional manner, violating the ethics of the teaching profession. The female teacher went to the student’s home to apologize and the family accepted.

After suspending this teacher, Xuan Thuong Primary Boarding School will coordinate with relevant authorities to take disciplinary action.

On May 9, a female teacher in Dak Lak also attracted attention when she slapped an eighth-grade student during a test because she discovered the student was using documents. According to current regulations, if found guilty, teachers will be subject to one of four forms of disciplinary action: reprimand, warning, dismissal or forced resignation.
