The report on a primary school teacher caught on camera swearing at police officers would not be disclosed due to privacy considerations, the Education Bureau said.

While the bureau was still "arranging related information to form the report" concerning teacher Alpais Lam Wai-sze, it told the South China Morning Post that it would not be revealing any details from it.

"Since the case is an individual incident and involves personal information, the Education Bureau will not disclose the content of the report to the public," a bureau spokesman said in an e-mail to the Post.

The report - which Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying had demanded - would be sent to the secretary for education when it was ready for clearance before submission to Leung, he added.

It has been more than a month since the bureau received a report from Pui Ling School of the Precious Blood, where Lam teaches.
