Quang BinhA male student who was unable to take the 10th grade entrance exam due to being beaten by a friend at his final farewell party had to be hospitalized.
Mr. Vo Danh Thuan, Chairman of the People's Committee of Hung Thuy commune, Le Thuy district, said that the male student was in class 9C, Hung Thuy Secondary School.
The incident happened on 3/6. At a farewell party, this child and a group of schoolmates had a conflict that led to a fight. Due to having to move to Thua Thien Hue for treatment, the male student missed the exam to enter grade 10 in Quang Binh province, which began on June 6.
Initially, the authorities determined that there were 8 children participating in beating male students.
"These children are taking exams to enter the 10th grade, so we have not worked specifically to avoid affecting their spirits," said Thuan. It is expected that on June 8, when the exam is over, the authorities will invite related students and their families to work.
School fights have happened continuously in Quang Binh since the beginning of the year. In April, a 4th grade girl in Dong Hoi city cursed and forced her classmates to kneel in class. In Ba Don town, a 7th grader hit and dragged a friend on the street.
This province then had to issue an urgent document, requesting to rectify the situation of school violence, strengthen moral and lifestyle education among administrators, teachers, staff and students in the area.
