BATU PAHAT, SUN:
IT’S usually the students who play truant, but now a teacher is under investigation for cutting class.
Deputy Education Minister Dr Wee Ka Siong said today he has told the Perak Education Department to investigate a 43-year-old Tamil schoolteacher from Ipoh, who is said to have skipped more than 30 days of school since January. “This is absolutely unacceptable,” he said, adding that the parents of his students are outraged.
He teaches physical education, English, Tamil, mathematics and science.
Wee said if the teacher is found guilty stern action would be taken. He could face dismissal. We only want quality, dedicated teachers. A teacher who would just ‘makan gaji buta’ (take a salary without working for it) is not one of them,” he said. He expects the probe to completed within the next couple of days.
