Teacher gets £14,000 compensation payout after falling off child's toilet


A teacher collected £14,000 in compensation for injuries suffered when she toppled off a toilet seat at a primary school.
The woman dislocated her hip when she fell off the under-sized bowl that was designed for use by children aged under eleven. Liverpool City Council paid £12,958 to settle out of court her claim for compensation

Just one question, how the heck did she fall off?

At the school where my big brother works there are two sets of toilets, one for staff, one for kids, there should have been a proper staff toilet, unless..... she was deliberately using the wrong one.

I bet she was either lazy or impatient. Regardless, this compensation is a little out in left field! Whatever happened to people cliaming responsibility for being stupid?

Since Lawyers made it more practical to settle than to prove anything in court.

But she must have been either really fat or had alot of propulsion to fall off that seat.

Should a parent sue her for child endangerment? I mean she might have crushed one of the wee ones!

Maybe she clogged the toilet, feared being sued for damage and thought this as the easy way out.
