A high school teacher who allegedly identifies as a cat has been accused of ‘hissing’ at students and licking the back of their hands in class.

The bizarre classroom behaviour was witnessed by students at Marsden State High School in Waterford West in Queensland. 

The teacher is seen wearing a black and white cat ear headband in class and at school assembly in photos first obtained by the Courier Mail. 

Students allege the teacher asked to be referred to as ‘Miss Purr’ and wears a lanyard with the word ‘purr’ on it.

A relative of one student claimed the teacher had hissed at them after they failed to answer a question or pay attention in class. 

‘(The teacher) sits in class and licks her hands,’ the relative said. 

‘It’s absolutely disgusting.

‘Something needs to be done about this.’

Another parent said they wanted their child to have teachers they can ‘look up to’ which ‘isn’t someone who wears ears’. 

One mum alleged the teacher made her daughter ‘purr’ for a lolly. 

A spokesperson for the Department of Education said the behaviour ‘wasn’t acceptable in Queensland state schools’. 

‘The school is aware of parents’ concerns and the principal has addressed the issue directly with the teacher,’ a statement read. 

‘Teachers are held to the highest standards of professionalism and ethics.’

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Marsden State School for comment.
