[quote]To be fair, the rule about ensuring hair is kept tidy and neat at all times have already been stated in the school handbook/diary and the pupils should have been aware of it from Day One in school. Six years in school and parents still need to be notified of the rule? :slapshead:[/quote]
Could it be throughout the 6 years, the boy had been flouting school rules backed by his mama..... (judging by some comments.... told teacher off for this and told teacher off for that) :yikes: This is the last straw that broke the camel's back and the teacher felt obliged to discharge her duty by taking things into her own hands before he leaves the school?

Let me repeat what I had suggested in another thread on the same matter. Maybe the schools should show parents photos of what is acceptable and what is not for hairstyle, uniform, shoes and socks during P1 orientation.

Then there would be no confusion and no excuses throughout the 6 years. Those who disagree should transfer the child out, the school should not make exception or change the rules to cater to the few indulgent parents! Many queuing up to take over the place esp. if it is a coveted school.

Finally, let me share a quote

Ermmmm... :skeptical:... It's not just during P1 orientation actually... schools have rules printed in Pupil's Diary WITH pictures! Isn't it? :scratchhead: Thought all schools have all these black n whites clearly stated in there? (of what is acceptable or rather of only what is accepted... pertaining to hairstyle, uniforms, grading, practically everything.) Plus the demerit points and/or warning system/procedures the school adopts for students who flout school rules, misbehavior, (etc). No confusion at all I find. Just a case of one only wanting to read what one wants to read and/or wanting to do what one still wants to do despite any /all measures in place... or worse, despite knowing the consequences.

Furthermore this case was involving a P6 boy and not some noobie kid entering formal primary school education for the first time. Which goes to say the parents in this case aren't noobies too. They're seasoned parents. :evil: To be fair, mebbe they're noobies to PSLE requirements/guidelines bah.. (not referring to just academic preparations).

But still..... oh well..... :roll:

There's more to this than meets the eye. :skeptical:
