arguing and threatening his teacher with violence. The video first surfaced on Aug 23.
It also has put in place measures to support staff well-being, such as in-house professional counselling services and a"whole-of-government 24/7 counselling hotline" for public officers. It added: "Parents and the public can also work closely with teachers to establish positive partnerships and set appropriate expectations on the teachers’ responsibilities for our children’s development."For Mandy, the work continues long after official school hours, with her phone notifications constantly going off, as students and parents send messages into the wee hours of the night.

A secondary school teacher, who wanted to be known only as Germaine, has been teaching for almost five decades. She lamented how"discipline has dropped tremendously in school" over the years."It was much easier to discipline the kids in the earlier years," she said.
A former English and English Literature junior college teacher, who wished to be known as Ms V Loh, recalled how parents would treat her like a “surrogate parent”, asking questions about their children’s private lives. Likening teachers to service staff, Sandra said: “Parents are like our customers. If we don’t make them happy, they’ll complain until we have no choice but to do it.”
Germaine, the secondary school teacher, said that when a school receives a complaint, an investigation has to be initiated, despite the possibility that the claim is untrue or inaccurate. “It was taking up time away from my family and myself, so when I had children, I took a six-year childcare break where I just helped with relief teaching before switching to contract teaching.
It added:"Schools have flexibility to pace the implementation of selected initiatives, including deferring implementation if this helps to manage staff workload."The Ministry of Education said it has "strengthened measures and enhanced support for schools to manage teachers’ workload, and to support their well-being".
