THIS is the moment a teaching assistant confesses to spitting on a girl and hitting other pupils at the school.
Danuska Pullia, 47, explained her vile acts in detail after she was arrested over child cruelty at a school in Sittingbourne, Kent, between September 2021 and July 2023.
The ex-teaching assistant confessed to the acts on a voluntary interview in July 2023
Pullia demonstrates how she pinched the kids nose when allegedly trying to remove plastic from his mouth
In the footage, the teaching assistant is heard admitting to spitting in one child’s face.
She told cops she “can’t remember” why she did it, but that the kid had spat at her first.
Moments later she then confesses to pinching a child’s nose, claiming it was to help remove some plastic.
She said “I didn’t really pinch his nose”, before demonstrating how she handled the kid.
A full was launched after colleagues caught Pullia in the act at the school.
She pleaded not guilty to four counts of child cruelty in December 2023.
But the former teaching assistant was then found guilty by a jury in November 2025 by Maidstone Crown Court.
She was sentenced at the same court earlier this week to four years in jail.
Investigating officer Detective Constable Hollie Kent said: “Pullia was entrusted with the care of vulnerable children and utterly failed in that responsibility.
“Her actions have had a lasting impact on her victims, many of whom weren’t able to speak out for themselves as to what happened. We are very grateful to the families and guardians of the children affected for their support throughout our enquiries.
“Pullia presents a danger to children and we are very pleased our investigation has stopped her from being around any for a long time.”
