Ministry investigating incident of teacher abusing student
PETALING JAYA: The Education Ministry is investigating a viral video circulating on social media which shows a teacher striking a student at an official school ceremony.

The 44-second clip that was shared via Facebook showed a man, presumably a teacher, shouting, slapping and pushing the student aside while on stage during a school ceremony.

The man was shown to be questioning the student before attempting to physically hit him. The video was captured by a bystander.

The ministry, in a statement yesterday, said an investigation is underway to promptly address and resolve the matter.

“Educators are advised to always maintain ethics and uphold the dignity and professionalism of the teaching profession.

“The ministry is dedicated to ensuring the safety and well-being of students, teachers and all individuals within the educational institutions under its purview,” it said.
