118. A good principal makes a difference

A foreign student agent invited me for lunch at Novena Square today, Thursday Jul 1, 2010. An ex-principal of a neighbourhood secondary school was also invited.

"How do you discipline naughty boys?" I asked. "There must be many of them. Do you cane them?"

"Women are not permitted to cane students," she said. "Only the male disciplinary master will do it."

TIME OUT.
1. Detention at the Principal's office from 1 pm to 5 pm. Others can go home.
2. Parents to meet.
