tire popped as a driving instructor. now my boss wants me to pickup a student tomorrow and let him drive on a spare tire

Hey all so I'm a driving instructor for mostly high school kids and so sometimes, being new drivers and all, people get into curbs or collisions or something like that. Today that happened, a student barely grazed the curb and the tire went flat. I told my dispatch and they grilled me about being negligent and terrible at my job and all that. Then proceeded to tell me to change the tire to the spare and pickup the next student tomorrow. This is an SUV. The student is a good driver so I'm not worried but this has to be against the law right?! I'm 1099 so IDK anything about what can be done. He also says I might be liable for damage since it was on my watch. I'm getting to my breaking point.
