Science Teacher Loses It

[cojak]

I've always had a yen to try pushing someone into a vat of hydrofloric acid and watch as their bones dissolve and they turn to jelly.

I also fancy spraying someone with liquid nitrogen and then tapping with a hammer...

I'm right in front of you cojak. RUN!

[NickFitz]

Absolutely. I've had blackboard wipers whistling past my ear (the Latin/RE teacher was a nut but luckily not a good shot)

My O Level Physics teacher was a master of writing something on the board, then turning in a trice and hurling the chalk at somebody's nose. Nine times out of ten he was right on the mark, even aiming for the back of the lab

Well I might like to get something in-to Pogle's 'personal space', if she's a girl hamster

Did the kid wind him up or threaten the teacher to breaking point ?

The teacher had a self control problem but the kid sounds like a little terror.

Still no one deserves to be hospitalised.

I wonder what the teacher did to the kid(s), it must have been terrorfying for the kids in class.

My better half is a teacher, the stories she tells me about kids today beggars believe. I know when I was at school we wound the teachers up a bit but it is in a different league now with mobile phones in the classroom etc.

I'm surprised there isn't more teacher pupil incidents on the news to be honest.

Teaching really is a mugs game nowadays.

Now that they basically can't throw disruptive kids out of school any longer I've been surprised this has taken so long to happen.

I'd like to hear the little bastards(sorry cheerful cheeky chappy who is a little boisterous but a good lad at heart who certainly wouldn't try and intimidate a teacher with a couple of his mates...) side of the story.

Threaded, I'm with you on this.

A weapon was involved, whose weapon was it? The teachers? Heaven forbid little Johnny turning up at school "tooled up"...

Ah well, whatever the situation the teachers career is fubar!

I vaguely remember a poem doing the rounds when I was at school in the 80s. The last couplet was:

"So I shot that rotten kid,
Right between the eyes".

The lovely little scamp swore at the teacher, who picked up the nearest thing to hand - a metal weight - and hit the kid around the head with it. The other kids were injured while trying to pull the teacher off him.

Looks like the teacher just had had enough, and finally snapped.
