A disturbing incident occurred at a local primary school this morning when a teacher reportedly beat a student for arriving late.
The student, a boy between 8 and 10 years old, was severely punished, leaving visible marks on his back.
According to eyewitnesses, the teacher, whose identity remains undisclosed, lashed out at the young boy for his tardiness, disregarding any consideration for the child’s wellbeing.
After the beating, the teacher sent the boy home, which prompted his parents to return to the school, infuriated by the mistreatment of their son.
The parents caused a commotion upon their arrival, demanding to speak with school authorities and seeking justice for the excessive punishment inflicted on their child.
The school’s administration is yet to release an official statement regarding the incident.
Local residents and other parents have expressed outrage over the teacher’s actions, calling for a thorough investigation and appropriate disciplinary measures to prevent such incidents in the future.
This incident has sparked a broader conversation about the use of corporal punishment in schools and the need for more effective and humane disciplinary practices.
