A 44-year-old woman accused of assaulting a child at a private Saskatoon Christian school earlier this year has completed mediation.

Saskatoon provincial court confirmed Terra MacEwan’s assault with a weapon charge was withdrawn as a result.

According to media reports, a seven-year-old boy who has autism told his mother that his head hurt after his teacher hit him twice with a baton for not listening during class.
