Primary school teacher banned after dragging a pupil across floor like a teddy'

"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."

"A teacher has been banned from the classroom after dragging a young child across the floor like a child dragging a teddy. Georgina Graham had worked as an early years foundation stage teacher, covering the age group from birth up to five years old, at Hunningley Primary School for almost 10 years before she was suspended in 2023 pending investigation into her alleged actions."

The Independent requests donations to fund on-the-ground reporting across reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, and maintains open access without paywalls. The outlet emphasizes sending journalists to speak to both sides and parsing facts from messaging. Georgina Graham, an early years foundation stage teacher at Hunningley Primary School for almost ten years, was suspended in 2023 after the school reported two allegations of common assault involving pupils A and B. Two police investigations began in March; by May police took no further action and the matter was referred to the Teaching Regulations Agency. Witnesses described dragging a distressed pupil across the floor.
