Dunbar v. School District 1971, [1987] ,[object Object],[object Object],An 18 year-old student severely injured his right hand while using a table-saw during a woodworking class. He stated that, at the time of the accident, he was following the instructions given to him by his teacher; however, he could not recall precisely how the accident had occurred.

Was the teacher found to be negligent?

Editor's Notes

  1. We continue our discussion of teachers’ responsibility to “take care” of their students by considering issues relating to possible defenses to a negligence claim. We will also consider the question of “who pays?” when monetary compensation has been ordered by the court. In addition, we will consider the likelihood of educational malpractice becoming a source of negligence suits in the future. Finally, we will once again allow you to “be the judge” in assessing liability in several Canadian educational negligence cases.
