What school rules did he break?

the rule on hair length

From picture, I see nothing wrong with fringe n side...so maybe the back?

Maybe moe do what the army is doing. All boys should have one type of hairstyle - botak - to avoid confusion.[/quote]


Fringe looks ok on the pictures except his hair looks untidy before but got even worst after the untimely and unprofessional hair cut.

I remember school letter issued 1 week before the PSLE oral…nails must be cut and look presentable. It’s a national exam afterall, so students shouldn’t look unkempt when facing examiners from other schools. A disgrace to the school. Even got my son to take a shower to smell nice and brush his teeth again before leaving the house.

You mean all the schools really sent PN about cut nails and hair??
Last time where got such things?
Should be common sense right? Not just for PSLE...
Talk about spoon feeding our future generation... :faint:

My ds has the same problem as the boy. After cutting his hair short, the top would have a bunch sticking out. Can't use gel (no go in school) n by the time the hair falls nicely in place, it is time for a haircut... :slapshead:

I agree. This is like going for an interview. Show some respect for the occasion and the persons they are going to meet. First impressions count.

First impression is very impt...if examiners are given due respect, somehow they will see the student in a different light.
Was short of spraying cologne on my son that day :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Hm…just read the article on edvantage…boy was given warning letter 2 days before exam but forgot to show mom.

Hmmm … between getting hair cut by the teacher (can potentially still score for the Oral) and the possibility of being barred from PSLE Oral (which is getting zero marks), which is better?


After close to 6 years in primary school, it would truly be a sad day for any P6 pupils if they do not know the school rules by heart, and choose to flout them on a major examination day. Ironically, one of the Oral’s topic was on school rules.

I stand by the teacher. If the child in question is mine, he deserved it.

fully agree with you. Those who flout the law should be prepared to face the consequences.
just wonder if the teacher did not cut the hair and subsequently the boy was barred from taking the oral exam, will his parents blame the teacher for being too lax?
