A teacher has been sacked for grabbing a pupil who hurled a banana milkshake at him - despite neither the student or his parents complaining.
Robert Cox held the 16-year-old boy's arms and pinned him to his chair after being soaked by the drink and suffering a torrent of abuse from the student.
Mr Cox said he feared the boy was about to throw the chair at him. After he let the teenager go, the pupil did pick up a chair and threw it. (Mail.)
