As a responsible parent, you must act quickly and decisively in the face of corporal punishment of children. Below, I will provide you with three effective coping steps to help you protect your children's rights and interests and let them thrive in a safe and respectful environment.

Communicate with the school

After learning that the child was subjected to corporal punishment, get in touch with the school leader or class teacher at the first time to learn more about the incident. Be sure to collect relevant evidence and confirm the facts of corporal punishment. If this is the case, the school is firmly required to take effective measures to make the teachers involved apologize to the children and parents and deal with the teachers seriously.

Call the police or ask for help

If the school fails to handle the case or the punishment is too light, please call the police or report to the education department in time. Children's safety and self-esteem are crucial, and we must take more decisive measures to protect them.

Consider transferring.

Even if the corporal punishment incident is resolved, the child may still be psychologically traumatized. If it is difficult for children to adjust their emotions at school or think that the environment is no longer safe, please consider transferring schools or finding more suitable educational opportunities.
