A video clip showing a female teacher at a middle school striking a pupil on the head and cheek has drawn criticism from Internet users.

The footage was posted on YouTube, Saturday, under the title, “A teacher’s violence against a middle school senior in Incheon.”

In the clip, the teacher hit the boy on the head and slapped him on the cheek dozens of times, while holding his ear, in a parking lot at the Everland theme park in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province.

Students of the school said they were on a field trip Friday and she beat the student for being more than 20 minutes late.

They said they also saw her kicking the boy’s private parts.

The pupils shot the clip and posted it on the Internet.

A school official said the teacher visited the student’s home and apologized to his parents on Saturday.

The school and the district educational office said they are investigating the incident.

They said they will decide whether to punish the teacher depending on the outcome of the inquiry.

Many bloggers posted comments criticizing the teacher, saying the beating was not corporal punishment but amounted to assault.


인천 중학교 女교사, 학생 폭행 동영상 파문

인천지역의 한 중학교 여교사가 학생을 폭행하는 장면이 담긴 동영상이 유출돼 논란이 되고 있다.

30일 유튜브에는 '인천 모 중학교 3학년 제자를 향한 선생님의 폭력'이라는 제목의 1분 16초 분량의 동영상이 올라왔다.

이 동영상에는 지난 29일 경기 용인시의 한 놀이공원 주차장에서 여교사가 남학생의 뺨을 수차례 때리는 모습이 담겨있다. 여교사가 발로 한 학생을 밀치는 장면도 포함됐다. 폭행을 당한 학생은 집합 시간에 오지 않았다는 이유로 주차장에서 체벌을 당한 것으로 전해졌다.

이 동영상을 올린 학생들은 여교사가 지각을 했다는 이유로 학생의 머리와 뺨을 50여대 때리고 성기를 발로 찼다고 동영상을 통해 주장했다.

학교 측은 교사가 심하게 때린 것은 아니며 학생이 숨어 있어서 교사가 찾느라 애를 먹었다고 해명했다. 해당학교의 교감은 "숨어 있다가 차 떠나고 남으면 놀이기구를 더 탈 수 있다고 생각한 것 같다"며 "폭행을 한 교사에 대해서는 징계를 검토하고 있다"고 말했다.
해당 동영상을 본 네티즌들은 "동영상이 너무 충격적이다", "교사의 자질이 없는 것 아니냐", "요즘이 어떤 시대인데 심한 체벌이냐"며 격한 반응을 보이고 있다.

이에 대해 학교 관계자는 "놀이공원에서 체험학습을 마친 뒤 학교로 복귀하는 과정에서 두 학생이 집합 시간을 어기고 늦게 도착해 교사가 훈육 차원에서 대여섯 차례 때렸을 뿐"이라며 "정확한 경위를 조사하고 있다"고 밝혔다.

인천시 동부교육지원청은 체벌 경위에 대한 진상조사에 착수했으며 조사 결과에 따라 해당 학교와 교사에 대한 징계 여부를 결정할 방침이다.
