A primary school in Balrampur district drew widespread outrage after a video surfaced of assistant teacher Praveen Toppo teaching blatantly incorrect English spellings to young students. The incident occurred at Primary School Machandand Kogwar in the Wadrafnagar block. In the viral clip, Toppo is seen writing spellings like “Noge” for Nose, “Eare” for Ear, and “Iey” for Eye on the classroom blackboard. An inquiry launched by the District Education Office found more errors in the written material, including misspelled days of the week and basic family terms such as Father, Mother, Brother, and Sister. DEO MR Yadav directed the cluster coordinator to conduct an on-site inspection, confirming that children had been learning these incorrect spellings. Following the probe, the DEO suspended assistant teacher Praveen Toppo for negligence and poor subject knowledge. The school, with 42 students, is now left with only one teacher.
