Brutal beating by a group of mothers of an English teacher in Marcos Paz that caused a teaching strike
MOTHERS AND THE TEACHER
The incident occurred last Wednesday when at the end of the school day, the mothers intercepted the teacher and attacked her mercilessly.
In the images you can clearly see and hear one of the women shouting: “Boys don’t touch each other, you understand? You son of a bitch…!” before the group began to viciously beat the teacher.
The violence of the scene is shocking. The mothers, instead of calming down and seeking dialogue, opted for a direct physical attack, while the teacher was left defenseless against the aggression.
These types of acts, which break any limit of what is tolerable in a school community, set off alarms throughout the district.

UNIONS AND TEACHING UNEMPLOYMENT
The answer did not take long to arrive. The teaching unions reacted immediately to this act of extreme violence.
The Buenos Aires Teaching Unity Front, which brings together the main education unions, announced a 24-hour strike in all educational establishments in the district to repudiate what happened.
In a statement issued shortly after the attack, the organization was blunt: “It is unacceptable that our students and teachers have to experience hostile situations within the school environment. Schools must be safe places of mutual respect.”
The unions that are part of the Unity Front -AMET, FEB, SUTEBA SADOP and UDocBA- They made it clear that they will not tolerate more episodes of violence within educational institutions:
“We are not going to allow these types of acts and we will reinforce our fighting measures to prevent events like these from happening again. Not with children, not with teachers,” they concluded in their statement.
The attack ignited a strong reaction not only among teachers but also in the local community. The school authorities have not yet issued an official statement, but it is expected that in the coming days meetings will be held with parents to try to rebuild dialogue and prevent such a regrettable situation from being repeated.
VIOLENCE AND THE CLIMATE OF THE PERIOD
The event once again puts safety in schools and respect for education professionals at the center of the debate.
What should be a space for learning and coexistence was transformed, at least on this occasion, into a scene of excessive violence that leaves both physical and emotional consequences on those who experienced it closely.
This violent episode in Marcos Paz is not an isolated event, it is rather an alarm signal about the tensions that affect the relationship between parent teachers and the educational system in these times when violence seems naturalized by the country’s own political authorities.
The challenge, now for the educational community of Marcos Paz, will be to find solutions that prioritize respect, dialogue and protection of those in the classrooms, abstracting from the climate of the time that seems to flood everyone with intolerance in every area of education. everyday activities.
