The Fukuoka Prefectural Board of Education dismissed two male teachers on November 13 for separate misconduct. A teacher in his twenties at a prefectural high school admitted to committing multiple indecent acts against a female student between March and September. In another case, a 55-year-old junior-high teacher in Iizuka was dismissed after he was referred to prosecutors for driving after drinking several cans of beer in July; although the case was later dropped, he told investigators he had driven under the influence up to twice a week over the past two years.
