A 7th-grade male student in central Thanh Hoa Province had his bangs cut in front of the class by his teacher for forgetting his notebook for the Civics lesson.
The female teacher, who was teaching Civics under a fixed-term contract, cut the student's hair during class last month, Doan Van Son, the Quang Chieu Secondary School's principal, said on Tuesday.
Son added that representatives from the school, along with the teacher and local authorities, visited the student's home to apologize. The teacher has been suspended from teaching for a week and is required to submit a written report.
Loi, the boy's mother, recalled that on the morning of Feb. 5, she noticed her son came home later than usual after school. After talking to him, she learned about the incident.
The incident has sparked public outrage, with many viewing it as an infringement on the student’s physical integrity, particularly considering the teacher’s role in teaching Civics.
