An upset parent, learning that a teacher had used hurtful words
on his daughter in class, has filed a police report for verbal
abuse.
Mr Mohamed Ariffin, 53, said that his seven-year-old daughter,
who goes to New Town Primary School in Tanglin Halt Road,
told him that her teacher said to her: 'I don't want to see
your face.'
Mr Ariffin made the police report last week. The school and
teacher have both apologised for the incident.
The teacher is believed to be a woman in her 20s, and in
the school's Learning Support for Maths programme for slow learners.
