Good news. Just hope some over-zealous anti-cp guy isn't elected on the other regions. |

On March 30, a high school teacher in Namyangju city caught two students having a video phone call during a lecture. In punishment, he pinched their cheeks and ordered them to adopt the push-up position for four or five seconds.
The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education, which is led by liberal superintendent Kim Sang-kon, formally disciplined the teacher in June, saying he had violated the students� human rights. The discipline went on his record
The Gyeonggi education office banned corporal punishment last October, following Seoul�s schools. The national government disagrees with the banning of corporal punishment and some teachers and parents have worried that it has eroded the authority of teachers.
The media reported yesterday that the teacher had appealed to the Education Ministry�s Appeal Commission for Teachers and the commission withdrew the punishment on Sept 5. |
