According to a report from Vinh Loc High School, the incident occurred on August 8. At that time, teacher VXT went to the house of student NTH (7th grade student, Pham Van Hinh Secondary School, Tay Do commune, Thanh Hoa province) to scold and slap this student.

The report also stated that teacher T. and student H. are cousins (H.'s father is teacher T.'s uncle). During her studies, student H.'s family asked teacher T. to tutor her from grade 3 until now.

The report of Vinh Loc High School sent to the Department of Education and Training of Thanh Hoa stated that the cause of the incident was that while communicating with friends, H. told them that his brother (meaning teacher T.) taught in a difficult way (using vulgar language). Angry because his student spoke disrespectfully to his brother, who was also his teacher, teacher T. went to H.'s house, yelled at and slapped H. (in the presence of H.'s mother).

Immediately after learning about the incident, the school's Board of Directors asked Mr. T. to report and review.

After the incident, Mr. T. and his family took H. to the Hanoi Central Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital for a health check. As a result, H. suffered a torn eardrum in her left ear. She is currently receiving care at Thanh Hoa Children's Hospital and her health has stabilized.

Previously, Tien Phong newspaper reported that the authorities had stepped in to verify a clip posted on social media that recorded a man riding a motorbike to a house, calling a male student out to the yard and then repeatedly slapping the male student in the face.

The man in the clip is a teacher currently working at Vinh Loc High School, and the male student who was beaten is a 7th grader in the area.
