Description

When a fight broke out in a Birmingham school between two male pupils, their shocked teacher, Marian stepped in to try to break them up. In a rage, one of the boys turned on her, inflicting a vicious physical assault on her. This does not appear to be a rare occurrence in schools sadly as Marian tells me that, over the last 12 months, 8% of teachers in the UK are reported to have been physically assaulted by pupils. Marian joins me to talk about the incident, the aftermath and her recovery.
