Teacher who launched a foul mouthed attack at bouncers is suspended by her primary school while it investigates her drunken behaviour - MO

A teacher who launched a foul-mouthed attack at bouncers has been suspended by her primary school while it investigates her drunken behaviour.

Footage of Emily Higgins yelling at doorstaff 'my dad owns your f****** a**' before calling them 't***', outside the Geisha cocktail bar in The Cube, Birmingham, went viral when it was shared online in August.

It has now been revealed that her job lies in the balance, as bosses investigate the unpleasant incident.

St Gregory’s Catholic Primary School in Smethwick, West Midlands, has placed the year two teacher on leave, with a substitute taking her post for the 'foreseeable future'.

A witness filmed Miss Higgins outside the bar and the clip was brought to the school's attention after parents recognised her.

In the video she is seen in an inebriated state and repeatedly confronting doorstaff, while trying to force her way past them and into the bar.

She is also heard calling out for her father and suggests that he has some form of connection to the bar.

Her friends try to calm her down and ask her to leave the bouncers alone, but she ignores their pleas.  

St Gregory's headteacher Krystyna Bickley said the school were taking the matter very seriously.
