Ontario teacher's suspension reduced
after physical altercation with student
AN ONTARIO teacher's 10-day suspension
was reduced because it was based on a level of
misconduct that was not proved in related legal
proceedings.
Ian Marquis was an elementary school teacher
for the Toronto District School Board, hired by
the board in 2001.
On May 15, 2015, Marquis was supervising
students during the afternoon recess. At the end
of the recess, students lined up at the door to go
back inside the school, as usual. However, one
particular student, who had being playing with a
ball, continued to do so as the others lined up.
Marquis called out to the student multiple
times to pick up the ball and get in line. After
the student failed to comply, he approached the
student — who was eight years old — and asked
for the ball. When the student didn't immediately
give it to him, Marquis grabbed at the ball to take
it away.
