Teacher in Upper Egypt 'beat girls for praising El-Sisi'
Prosecutors are investigating a teacher who allegedly hit female pupils after one of them praised army chief Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi.
The mathematics teacher at a preparatory girls' school (ages 12-15) in Minya, Upper Egypt is accused of verbally and physically assaulting 25 pupils during the incident earlier this week, Al-Ahram Arabic news website reported.
The teacher allegedly let out a string of expletives and slapped the girls around the face, Al-Ahram added.
School headmaster Mohamed Essameddin disputed the allegations, but referred the teacher for investigation.
Egyptians have been divided between loyalists of deposed president Mohamed Morsi and those who favour the military which ousted him in July amid mass protests against his rule. Tensions have been heighted at universities and schools since the start of the academic year in September. Protests on university campuses have at times boiled over into violence between rival students.

Re: Teacher in Upper Egypt 'beat girls for praising El-Sisi'
I see on the news that the twelve students that stormed the university offices in Cairo? Received seventeen years each imprisonment. I wonder what this teacher will get if found at fault?

Re: Teacher in Upper Egypt 'beat girls for praising El-Sisi'
Rather beggars belief that a teacher - a professional - would slap anybody.
Teaching is an old profession and guided by many rules, regulations, ethics, codes of conduct that can be found most anywhere in the world. Am sure the teacher could have resorted to many other ways to deal with students than to whack 'em. Seems quite far fetched to think that a teacher wouldn't realize of know that slapping a student isn't too kosher and I really do know different strokes for different folks.

I have seen a teacher in Cairo lining children up in the school yard and clearly get a great satisfaction out of beating them one by one as they passed on their way to class, while the female teacher seemed to enjoy watching.

That example would probably be a sadistic sexual pleasure moment.BENNU wrote:I have seen a teacher in Cairo lining children up in the school yard and clearly get a great satisfaction out of beating them one by one as they passed on their way to class, while the female teacher seemed to enjoy watching.

I held the record at one of my schools for being beaten for 3 years, sadly until the PM's son of Nigeria ascended my throne…..

Re: Teacher in Upper Egypt 'beat girls for praising El-Sisi'
Guess it is kinda philosophical depending on your stance:
Should corporal punishment be allowed in schools? Is it actually ok for a teacher to smack a child who is misbehaving? And should boys and girls be treated the same re: discipline?

Re: Teacher in Upper Egypt 'beat girls for praising El-Sisi'
No child should ever be hit under any circumstances, at school or home or street. But here it is a regular occurrence. I have witnessed small children hit and slapped with great force on buses, in shops and on the street just because they are dragging their heels or wailing or having a slight tantrum. You can only think that it is also happening within the home. I could give you examples of what my friend had to endure during childhood from the age of six, her earliest memory, but I doubt that you would be able to believe it.

As it didn't me Brian. It was, then, an excepted part of the education system. It hurt, but the pain, as do the memories, soon fade away. But, it created a negative result in some I went to school with, making bully's out of people that used to be placid due to their continued classroom punishments for misbehaving. And one or two of these newly made bullies, soon progressed into common thieves after leaving school. Not saying there is a connection, but worth thinking about.Brian Yare wrote:"Spare the cane and spoil the child". Didn't do me any harm ...
