On October 30, speaking with Lao Dong Newspaper reporter, Ms. Vo Dao Hoa - Principal of Ba Dinh Primary School (Bim Son town, Thanh Hoa) - said that the People's Committee of Bim Son town has just decided to temporarily suspend teacher Vo Thi Tam - who was "accused" by parents of beating a first grader.
"The decision to temporarily suspend Ms. Tam from work starts from October 29, 2024 until there is an official conclusion from the police agency. Currently, the police agency is still verifying and clarifying the case," said Ms. Hoa.
Previously, as Lao Dong Newspaper reported, the family of T.P.N (6 years old, student of class 1B, Ba Dinh Primary School) discovered that their daughter had bruises on her back and unusual scratches on her ear, so they asked. Later, they learned that N had been beaten and had her ear pulled many times by teacher Vo Thi Tam.
After the incident, the school suspended Ms. Tam's teaching job and transferred her to clerical work that had nothing to do with students.
Immediately after the above incident, many other parents also filed a complaint accusing teacher Tam of beating many other students, even though the beatings had been going on since last year.
