End to paddling urged by Education Secretary King
Education Secretary John B King Jr urged governors and school leaders in states that allow corporal punishment to end the practice. He cited the Civil Rights Data Collection showing over 110,000 students were paddled in 2013-14, with disproportionate numbers of Black and disabled students, and called for safer, more supportive disciplinary methods.
