A teacher took a disabled childs seat from him and told him; since you can not stay in your seat, you will stand and do your school work. It rain that day so the child was in pain. the child suffers with pain in his feet from surgery that was perform to try and correct his deformity to his feet. the teacher was aware, but still saw the best punishment was to have him stand, regardless. Is she accountable for the 12 year old child negative action after the fact?

Yes, she is definitely. Professionally speaking, she should not punish the disabled child at all. Presumably, she did with less consideration and professionalism. It is your right to report such an inconsiderate action to the School Director/Head Master or the School Board. It is a sad episode and a pity for the unlucky boy, someone out there please proposes more appropriate measures to deal with the unkind teacher. I'm wondering if this is one the saddest methods of teaching in schools in most countries.

Yes! Yes! Yes! I am disabled and I was in a classroom for disabled kids and I had a teacher who was abusive to me. She had to take an early retirement. My Mother fought to have her removed from the we called it back them crippled children's class room. That teacher you are talking about should not have done what she did to this boy.If you are his Mom go for it!

In the USA, she'd be liable if it was well-known that having the child on his feet for too long could cause permanent damage.
If she actually caused an injury, then she too would be liable.
That's my two cents for ya.
