The so-called “Miss Pillar” reportedly wore cat ears and licked their hands during class.
Queensland State Schools responded according to reports the teachers had taken about cat “persona.”
The parents took him to social media and filed a complaint with Marsden State High School in southern Brisbane. Students report that a teacher known as “Miss Pillar” has begun to act like a cat.
The teacher was photographed in class wearing fake cat ears and photographed a tag with the name of a strap with the word “Purr.”
According to the Courier Mail, parents reported other behaviors related to other behaviors that were allegedly licking the hands during class.
A spokesman for the Queensland Department of Education said schools were aware of the issues during the Epoch era.
“The school was aware of the concerns of their parents, and the principal addressed the issue directly with the teacher as soon as they noticed it,” the spokesman said.
“Teachers are bound by the highest standards of professionalism and ethics.
“This behavior is not acceptable at Queensland State Schools.”
The Epoch Times understands that teachers known as “Miss Purr” are no longer the role of state education.
It is unclear whether disciplinary action was taken due to confidentiality rules.
Cat in the classroom
The “fur” trend has been widespread in recent years, supported by social media apps like China-owned Tiktok.
The Furries take on what they call “Fursona.” There, they wear complete “Fursuit” or accessories such as clip-on ears and tails.
They also take on animal-like traits.
The fundamental reason
Psychiatrist Gillian Spencer said he did so because he felt they weren’t fit for people from the Epoch era who had alternative identities.
“They still couldn’t achieve a sense of belonging and could not find an explanation as to why,” she said.
“They may have an autistic touch that drives the feeling of being different from others.
“Autism allows you to work hard on your relationships with other humans, and thus make your connections with animals feel valuable.”
Spencer said there is a lot of information online that encourages people to think about their identity, such as whether they might feel like animals.
“There’s a celebration of how different and special it is,” she said.
“It could be an expression of creativity and fun, but it is a private activity and should not be allowed in the classroom or around the children.”
Spencer said animal personas are confused for children and could affect them in an age where they learn about reality.
