Teachers and discipline

From The Panel, 4:15 pm on 12 December 2017

Is there an unevenness in the justice dispensed to some teachers? Two cases have attracted attention recently, a Whanganui teacher that received home detention and name suppression for sexual offending against a young woman, and a Masterton teacher who stopped a boy headbanging, and was found to have committed serious misconduct in doing so. PPTA president Jack Boyle joins the panel to discuss whether the outcomes of these cases against teachers are positive for all involved or not.
