My son teacher hit him with a broom stick an left an marks on him i ask were he get it and he said that the teacher hit him as soon as he said that i went right up to the school the principle said that she was trying to scare him so he can learn and pay attention in class but beating a child to make him learn was not right i did not give anyone permission to lay there hand on my 6 year old son and i took him out as soon as I could the school is ok but hitting and leaving marks on children to make them learn does not work im a teacher myself i believe that we can guide a child to learn but we can't force it a child should succeed on their own no one should force a child by being force to learn the more they won't succeed because a child learn from their mistake an forcing them they will be scared to make the wrong move please i don't won't any other child ending up like mine, its a good school. Having kids working off their level by beating them and forcing them to learn is not a good system i would not want my child in.
