A PE teacher has been banned from the profession after smacking a four-year-old boy on the knees when he threw a tantrum.
Ian Webber, 56, struck the youngster during an after-school football club after carrying him across a sports hall by the shoulders in May 2018.
He warned the boy: 'If you kick me again, I'll smack you', before slapping him twice on the knees at a school in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands.
Earlier this month, a Teaching Regulation Agency panel heard the attack happened after Webber told the boy not to pull post-it notes off an ideas display.
