Can teachers get suspended from teaching?

Question

Can teachers get suspended from teaching?

Answer 1

I looked at all your response it appears that they are mostly of entirely from students. My reply it depends on the infraction  and the gravity of it. Teachers must have a moral and educational compass. There must be a rule of professionalism when that is crossed they should be removed from the classroom.

Answer 2

Yes, but it is usually after they have abused students sexually, stolen, and the like.  Incompetence is not going to get a teacher suspended.

Answer 3

In Texas, teachers are put on a three-year contract at a district.  You need to read the fine print, of course.  Since state-mandated tests are a big thing here, if you  are caught "helping" a   student during a test, you will probably get your teaching license taken away, or at the very least, you're suspended.   Of course, there's the usual stuff like "inappropriate contact with a student" and many written reprimands,  and after you're suspended, you may go to jail if the student is underage.

Answer 4

yea...if a teacher does something that is not legal then he can be fired or suspended....any thing from throwing something at a student to or saying some thing sexual....if a teacher is constantly putting down a student calling them stupid and other mean words then they could be fired...however if u just dont like a teacher or u do not feel that they r teaching good then  the teacher can not be fired.

Answer 5

Absolutely! It all depends on the type of situation they get into but yeah, it can happen.
