Glasgow teacher who strapped pupil to wheelchair at complex needs school struck off

Fiona MacDougall was working at Linburn Academy in the south side of the city in 2016 and 2017 when she was found to have acted inappropriately.

By her own admission, the teacher allowed pupils to be sworn at by colleagues and failed to respond when they shouted, and shoved a pupil who didn't want to complete a puzzle.
