But should people be jailed indefinitely because of a prejudice, if it isn't actually harming someone?
This man may have been good at his job. Obviously not the ideal teacher for that particular student but that can be so with students for a whole range of reasons & it isn't that hard to just.. allocate a different teacher.
If the teacher sought out the child or harrassed that child it might be a different matter.
I think there is a huge danger with this case. Massive. I don't know all the details of it but on the surface it looks as if this man has been jailed because he has an opinion that people might not agree with or may not like.
It does represent a huge danger. It may not be prejudice as such if the man is just "old school".
