It's apparently not the first time Yvonne Horohau Te Peeti has been investigated for using force against students in her care.
Two other incidents in 2003 and 2008 were investigated by her school's board of trustees.
She allegedly punched a pupil, but said it was a push - and was also accused of hitting another student on top of the head and kicking him on the backside.
