Parents "accuse" gym teacher of stepping on and dragging student, school releases camera

(Dan Tri) - La Khe Primary School (Ha Dong, Hanoi ) said it has suspended teaching for 1 week with the physical education teacher who was "accused" by parents of violent behavior towards 3rd grade students to continue verifying and clarifying the incident.

On the evening of December 26, a parent from La Khe Primary School took to social media to accuse physical education teacher D.HM of abusing her child during physical education class. According to what the parent posted, because her child was playing with friends during class, teacher M. pulled the student out of the multipurpose room.

While taking the student out, Ms. M. "used her shoe-wearing foot to kick the student's shoulder and neck," "cursed and slapped the student in the face"...

This parent asked the school to provide camera images and promptly handle the teacher.

The meeting between the school, parents, teachers, police representatives and the Departmentof Education and Training of Ha Dong district took place on the morning of December 27. Late in the evening, Ms. Bui Thi Chuyen, Principal of La Khe Primary School, informed Dan Tri reporter about the results of the meeting and especially the extracted camera images.

Accordingly, on December 24, during the physical education final exam of the first semester of class 3A7, student N.D.K. and several other students did not concentrate during the exam. The teacher in charge, D.HM, reminded them many times but to no avail.

"Because of concerns about the class's test progress, the teacher pulled student N.D.K. out of the multi-purpose hall to hand over to the homeroom teacher of class 3A7 to manage, so as not to affect the test of other students.

During that process, student K. did not listen and protested strongly, so the teacher left the student outside the multi-purpose room to continue testing the remaining students.

At the end of the lesson, teacher M. sent the students back to class and observed that K. was still playing with her friends as usual. Afterwards, teacher M. also reported the incident during the test to the homeroom teacher of class 3A7. On December 25-26, student K. still went to school, ate lunch, and participated in activities as usual," the information was recorded in the document.

Camera footage shows that teacher M. pulled the student out of the multi-purpose room. The student protested and did not want to leave, and was seen leaning against the floor.

Then, Ms. M. returned to continue the test with the remaining students. The time the teacher pulled the students out of the multi-purpose hall was 9:05:14. The time she returned to the multi-purpose hall to continue the test: 9:06:35.

During the entire camera observation, there was no image of Ms. M. hitting any student during the entire lesson at the multi-purpose room.

There is no camera outside the multi-purpose room hallway so there is no image of the incident outside the multi-purpose room hallway.

Immediately after the incident, Ms. D.HM admitted to having acted inappropriately towards student K. and called the parents to apologize directly on the evening of December 24. However, student K.'s family did not agree because they thought she did not admit to having beaten the student.

"Up to this point, the school continues to coordinate with the Department of Education and Ha Dong District Police to verify the incident, and continue to work with the student's parents to have an accurate conclusion about the above incident and will handle the teacher according to regulations.

The school has decided, at this time, to temporarily suspend teacher D.HM from work for 1 week for verification," Ms. Bui Thi Chuyen informed.
