SHOCKING footage has emerged of what appears to be a teacher whipping students with his belt to break up a fight.
Footage posted on LiveLeak shows a group of four boys fighting on the floor of a classroom, presumably in the United States. The teacher appears with a belt, and begins to hit them.
Children can be heard screaming in the background as chairs and desks are scattered across the room.
The only words spoken in the clip are by the teacher, who at the end can be heard telling the students to “clean up this roomâ€.

Details about the incident are slim, but it is believed the whipping took place at a private school, due to the nature of the students’ uniforms.
While the idea of corporal punishment sounds dated, it is still recognised in 19 US states, including Alabama, Florida, Kentucky and Texas.
It has been outlawed in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and most of Europe.
