A public school teacher is the third in the city being investigated for allegedly using inappropriate and biased teaching materials, Secretary for Education Kevin Yeung Yun-hung said today. According to reports, the teacher under investigation taught in a public school in Kowloon East, and is facing the possibility of having his teacher registration revoked. The teacher is the third to face an inquiry after two educators were sacked in recent months. The first disqualification in September last year involved a teacher accused of spreading pro-independence messages to primary school children. “If the teacher involved is also a civil servant, we will also see if there are any wrongdoings under the Civil Service Regulations,” he added.
