Teacher found guilty of professional misconduct after being accused of punishing student by having him scoop water out of a pool and carry a cinder block at her home

A Sudbury Catholic District School Board teacher has had her qualification certificate suspended for five months after being accused of punishing a special needs student with what she termed a “boot camp” at her own home at the request of his parents.

The teacher has also been reprimanded by the Ontario College of Teachers, and these disciplinary actions are also to be published in an official college publication. The notice of hearing, issued July 27, 2022, said that in the 2020-21 school year, the male student was in Bazinet’s class. The student has special needs and health challenges, as well as an Individual Education Plan.

The teacher is said to have driven the student to her home — without permission from the board, the document adds. The teacher also allegedly filmed the student performing the tasks at her home, and said “this is so you can look at it later and experience how it feels right now.” Sudbury.com reached out to the Sudbury Catholic District School Board both last winter and this week to ask if Bazinet is still employed by the board.
