So proud to see #SB364 pass through the Oklahoma legislature! 🌟 This bill will finally end the harmful practice of corporal punishment for students with disabilities. Let’s make sure it gets signed into law! 🙌 @OK_Appleseed @OklaChildAdv

Uganda banned corporal punishment in schools & pledged to end violence against children by 2030. But it still happens. Create safe, respectful spaces for children to grow. #EndCorporalPunishment2025

Over 40% of children in the country experience violence. That's according to Save the Children SA. It says despite a groundbreaking 2019 corporal punishment ruling, many children continue to be beaten. Megan Briede from Save The Children spoke to #eNCA to discuss this further #DStv403

Corporal punishment is still legal in 20 U.S. states — and it disproportionately harms Black, Latino & Native students. It’s not discipline. It’s violence. 🛑 End state-sanctioned cruelty in schools. ✊🏽 #EndCorporalPunishment #EdJustice #IDRA idra.news/nlApr25a

Corporal punishment is violence inflicted on children in the name of "discipline." The damage caused can be emotionally and physically painful. Evidence that corporal punishment is harmful to children, adults and society is overwhelming. #EndCorporalPunishment #ChildAdvocacy
