The principal of Admiral’s Academy in Conception Bay South is accused of using “excessive force in correcting the behaviour” of four students between kindergarten and Grade 6, according to new documents filed by his lawyers.
All four students were described as having “learning and/or behavioural exceptionalities,” and had various types of student support workers.
The details are revealed in an application to order the Newfoundland and Labrador English School District to turn over the student files, as well as principal Robin McGrath’s own work emails.
He hasn’t had access to his account since being suspended from his position at the Conception Bay South school in June 2018.
