The Disciplinary Committee of the Ministry of Education will make the final decision soon following the suspension of a Tailevu school head teacher who allegedly assaulted a student.
The Ministry says they have conducted their own investigation and a full report has been forwarded to the relevant committee.
It is alleged the head teacher hit the Year 8 student with a war club after he was caught wearing flip flops in school and refused to take them off when he was asked to do so by the teacher.
The ministry confirmed that the parents of the student lodged an official complaint about the alleged incident.
Meanwhile, police are yet to receive a report from the parents of the Year 8 student.
