Chandigarh, Oct 10 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Generally students don’t like strict teachers and in some cases they go too far, in making their dislike known to the world.
Sixteen students, who were studying in the Class 12 of the Vivek High School have been suspended for telling the whole world how they dislike their mathematics teacher.
The suspension was announced last Thursday and the students are supposed to stay home for three months, according to the school authorities.
According to the details of the story, a Class 12 student who obviously didn’t like his grades in a mathematics test posted his answer sheet on Facebook and added some abusive words to it. The words were directed at the mathematics teacher. Fifteen other colleagues of the student later added their comments to the initial post. And needless to say, they were as much rude.
Another teacher of the school who has an account on Facebook saw the comments which were described as abusive, rude and nasty. That teacher reported the incident leading to the suspension of the 16 students.
The parents of the affected students however agree with the school authorities that the students were wrong, but pleading to the school to tamper justice with mercy and reduce the suspension or better still, remove it for the students.
