A teacher of the Graham’s Hall Primary School in Cummings Lodge was yesterday physically assaulted by a parent of a pupil. The teacher has been identified as Shawn Marshall. Reports say that Marshall was taken to the hospital after the incident.
The Ministry of Education (MoE) has since expressed grave concern over the incident. “Whatever the circumstances, it is a reprehensible and ghastly act. It is unacceptable and will not be condoned in the least,” the Ministry said in a statement.
While details of the incident are yet to be disclosed, the police have confirmed that they are investigating the assault.
