Answer

Jane deserves to be told that.
You tell a person something / A person is told something.

The teacher was right to say that.
You say words / Words are said.

You could also say:
Jane deserves to hear that.
Jane deserves that.

Personally, I'd say:
Jane's teacher is right.
I agree with Jane's teacher.
I wouldn't use 'deserve' because Jane didn't work to achieve her great personality. She simply has it.
