      For those who have read today’s ST, what your views on the above?


      IMO, if the teacher did threatened to deduct marks from the boy’s exam if he refused to cut his hair, that is too extreme.

      If they did respect the school in the first place, they should not have a haircut that is not acceptable. Btw, there is no excuse for not being aware of school rules and regulations. Orientation and school handbook would cover it. So, by spending $60 on an unacceptable hair cut that left her son being penalised, who is in the wrong? Is it any wonder why we are churning out strawberry generation?

      I hope the teacher will be penalised (not blacklisted) for threatening and at the same time commended for enforcing the rules & regulations.

              You want to spend $60 for your child's haircut that is your problem. If the haircut not up to school standard, no choice you have to fork out summore $$ to get it up to standard. And seriously, we all know what the school needs in terms of haircuts. And really wonder why people make police reports over such things.


              The teacher should know better. What in the world possessed her to do such a thing. Get yourself into trouble over some hair issue. If I am the principal of the school I think I would want to strangle this teacher. :razz: Not busy enough meh, gotta handle this kind of things.

                  Waiting for the teacher's parent to call mata also... :siao:

                      And the parent keeps harping on the $60 haircut. So? Who cares! :siao:
                      This will definitely not be the last case looking at how some of these parents behave nowadays. :roll:

                        Eh..I read from the New Paper just now - thought the school did sent out reminder letters to those children who need haircut before PSLE Oral. It is the boy who forgot to give his mum the PN.


                        So now, who is the more embarrassing one ? 🤷
