Male parent who forced female teacher to kneel was expelled from the Party

On March 10, Mr. Tran Van Tuoi - Chairman of Ben Luc District People's Committee (Long An) said that the Party Committee of Nhut Chanh commune held a meeting to vote on disciplinary measures, with 11/11 votes unanimously agreeing to expel Mr. Vo Hoa Thuan from the Party.

According to Mr. Tuoi, the disciplinary action is based on the verification results that Mr. Thuan seriously violated the Party's principles, with some actions at Binh Chanh Primary School.

"The initial conclusion from the verification team shows that Mr. Thuan showed signs of forcing the teacher to kneel," Mr. Tuoi said, adding that the district will continue to resolve the case and handle the responsibilities of the principal and the female teacher of Binh Chanh Primary School. An official statement will be sent to the press on March 12.

Previously, at the end of February, at Binh Chanh Primary School (Ben Luc, Long An), Mr. Thuan and a group of parents met with a female teacher to protest because they thought she punished students by making them kneel, making them afraid to miss school.

During the conversation, the teacher knelt down to apologize to the parents. In his statement to the authorities, Mr. Thuan denied forcing the teacher to kneel, while the female teacher said that the parents forced her to kneel for 40 minutes. The Ministry of Education and Training has stepped in, requesting verification and handling of the incident.
