Elementary School Pupil Assaults Female Teacher
An elementary school student struck his female teacher in front of other students and the school seemingly attempted to cover up the incident.
On May 22, a 12-year-old student at Sinjeong Elementary School in western Seoul punched his teacher in the face with his fist several times in front of a group of classmates, according to witnesses and parents. The teacher, 32, received injuries around her mouth and had to have several stitches.
The incident began following a survey on school bullying with two boys writing obscene comments about the teacher on their survey sheets. After reading the comments, the teacher approached the two students and reprimanded them during clean up time after class.
As they showed no signs of apologizing, the teacher ordered the two students to prostrate themselves on the classroom floor. They disobeyed her so she tried to hit one of them with a rod. One of the students grabbed her arm and punched her.

| Wow, I can't wait to read what will happen to this student. Also, I would love to hear the student's parents version of this incident. I am sure it will go something along the line of this: "My son is a good boy. He has never hit anyone ever in his life. The teacher misunderstood my son. All he tried to do was swat a mosquito away from her face. So the teacher should apologize to my son." |

| The teacher is a jerk. Uses physical humiliation, escalates to violence with a weapon and is surprised when she gets violence in return. Then again, corporal punishment is the norm in schools here. What a throw-back. |

| Seems to me the student acted in self defense so this shouldn't be counted as an infraction on the Ss part, IMO. |

Korean parents don't care about disciplining their children anymore.....
"they're just children"
