Violence row deputy head sacked

A primary school deputy head at the centre of a row about violence in schools has been sacked.

Linda Ross was first suspended from Sidlaw View in Dundee in September last year after her husband claimed children were attacking teachers.

She was then moved to Longhaugh Primary but was suspended again in June.

Her husband then set up a website for teachers who felt victimised. The decision to sack Mrs Ross was made at a disciplinary hearing.
