Previously, on May 9, Ms. X. was assigned to supervise a final exam for grade 8 at Nguyen Thi Minh Khai Secondary School. While supervising the class, Ms. X. discovered that student T. was reaching into his pocket, possibly to take documents. Immediately after, Ms. X. walked up and slapped the male student twice in the face.

After receiving feedback from T.'s parents, the school investigated and asked Ms. X. to apologize to T. and her family. However, Ms. X. did not admit to hitting the student. It was only when the school extracted the classroom camera, which recorded Ms. X. approaching and slapping T., that the teacher admitted her actions.

Speaking over the phone, T.’s parents said they would not ask Ms. X. to publicly apologize to the family. However, because Ms. X. had beaten students many times, the family hoped that the school would take appropriate measures to ensure the rights of the students studying at the school.

The leader of Nguyen Thi Minh Khai Secondary School confirmed that some parents had previously reported that Ms. X. had beaten students, but the school had persuaded them and apologized, so they ignored it.
