I have dounts on my wierd school rules..its bothering me

Of course, I trust that the police are impartial in their duty.If you as a student are not engaged in any illegal activity, you have nothing to fear from approaching the police for help in this matter.The last thing we need is an overzealous Principal who is incapable of solving her misconstrued internal problems and resorts to such illegal surveillance.

I agree with what you said.Well, just to let you know, in school you have no rights. I remember the discipline master saying that last year to the whole school. He insists that school is a privilege and not your "right". This effectively means you have to accept whatever shit the school thinks its good for you. Like I said, the original intention behind this rule is to ensure that students do not loiter and go home,thus, bringing home clothes to school is a no-no as it defeats this purpose.Originally posted by pkchukiss:I am sure that the school has a valid concern for wanting to protect its reputation; after all, how would parents think of the school if their students were to be walking everywhere in public places instead of being kept in school or at home? It is this public perception that students left outside would engage in nefarious activities that leads the conservative elements pressurise the schools to do more to "keep our young off the streets for their own good".
However, what your school has chosen to do has gone too far: restricting one's movement outside is akin to treating the student like a prisoner on home detention: he isn't free to move about as a normal human being.
What the school could have encouraged was to allow the students to change to civilian clothes, and go do what they want to do. After all, the school should have no right to interfere with the student's live after official school time. In fact, whenever I went out with my school mates after school, we made sure to change at least our shirts. That way, we could avoid any awkward encounters with any of the teachers we met along the way, and also gives us leeway to get ouselves out of trouble in case we happened to get into some incident. Not that we would deliberately do so anyway! -
No. Its not "bad". My school aims to be the "PRemier Choice School" so in order to achieve this, they start having lots of praetorian and unreasonable rules. This is an attempt to polish the school's image so that it shines like brass.Originally posted by Devil1976:Suddenly had some thoughts.. Is your school really that 'bad' to have such rules implemented...? Or is there something really wrong with your principal..? A new system for all schools..??
As for the principal, I really dunno how she thinks, all Me and the school knows is that 1. She is a braggart 2.She likes awards 3. She likes it even more if you score A1s for O lvl.
My school is currently 5 years old and we have already earn plenty of awards under a dictator. -

And did they explain the rationale of the rule? Or did they give a garbled explanation like what my school did? -

-
haha, my ex-secondary school also had such dumb rules, anyway, nobody follow those rules, and it died a natural death
-
u mean u guys cant go out to eat at foodcourts and walk around in malls after school in your uniform ?
what ridiculous rules..
Apparently the Principal is only concerned about the school's image if a student can change into his/her own clothes and do the same thing as mentioned above.
Are recognition, image of the school and awards awarded by MOE the only things in the head of those who came up with such rules ?
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Go to the press, stupid rules are not meant to be followed.

Yup. I think so. which prinicipal does not like awards? Which principal does not want a good image? What is the best way to build this image and earn awards? Ans: INTRODUCE UNREASONABLE AND "good" rules.Originally posted by Sagara:u mean u guys cant go out to eat at foodcourts and walk around in malls after school in your uniform ?

My school principal is obsessed with awards and recognition. Our sch has also been chosen many times by MOE for official visits ,in which, principals from other countries come to our school for a tour.(And they probably go back to their own countries and introduce these F-up rules).
I think this rule would be cast in stone. It would not be removed as long as students in our sch choose to be subjugated by it and "the principal" is still seating in the office.Slight digression. My school principal has also envisioned our school being the"RI in the east". We aim to be autonomous in 3 years time. -
Saint Andrew's Sec school also like that.
Furthermore, they force you to attend Chapel if you are not Muslim. -
hmm.. i wonder what will happen if a few classes go to the minimart together. will they be punished as a whole group? what will the principal do if 90% of the student boycott the rules and go to the minimart?
-
Seriously, i still dun see e rationale in tis rule. Since the sch so kaypoh, then might as well set the rule as: "NO LOITERING WHILE YOU ARE A STUDENT OF SASS, WHETHER U ARE IN ATTIRE OR NOT." If students has been smoking or badly attired, gaming in arcade or behaving badly in the public, it's legit to punish the students.Originally posted by shade343:Yup.

I've a suggestion. Try violating this rule for once. While going out, look for chances to help ppl out. I dunno... catch some thiefs or wadever, though i doubt u're find tt much chance in sg anyway! 
After u get some commendations frm the police or something, and yr sch kinda wanna busk in the same glory as u, declare tt u broke the sch rules and be punished. Then, get a friend to report the case to Channel 8 Frontline. When those ppl frm mediacorp start interviewing abt u, u rant abt u muz abide to the sch rules despite having done a good deed, and tt u felt tis rule is redundant and punishing students for no legit reasons more than to preserve the sch image and honor. I swear the sch will abolish tis rule completely! 
The character of students lies not in their action, but in their heart. All the sch did is infringing human rights, for it's fame.
