The Education Department has referred an allegation a maths teacher at Lakelands Senior High School punched two year 8 boys in the face before a chair was thrown across the room to WA Police.

The alleged incident in Perth’s south was first aired on 6PR's Rumour File segment by 'Mrs Knockout' on Thursday morning, with Breakfast host Gareth Parker revealing more details this morning.

A notice to parents revealed there was “an incident in a class between a teacher and student” but the school said it was still investigating and had also referred the matter to the department.

WA State School Teachers’ Union president Pat Byrne said if the teacher involved was a union member, the union would support her through any investigative process that may take place.
