The management of Chrisland Schools has explained why it suspended a female pupil who engaged in sexual activity during a trip to Dubai, UAE.
In a letter to the pupil’s parents, dated April 14, 2022 and signed by the head teacher, G. I. Azike, the school said, “It was discovered that your daughter was involved in improper behaviour during the recently concluded World School Games in Dubai with a few of her counterparts wilfully participated in a game they called ‘Truth or Dare’, a game which led her and a few other co-learners to carry out an immoral act after the lights-out instruction was given.
“In line with our core values centred on discipline, Chrisland Schools have zero tolerance for any improper behaviour and misconduct.
“A full-scale investigation has been done and the parents of all the culpable learners have been duly notified of the necessary punishment meted out on the learners.
“The parents gave their full cooperation realising the need to work with the school so that the learners can be corrected and be of expected proper behaviour henceforth.”
The school added that every effort to inform the pupil’s parents about the incident and ensure that the “improper behaviour” is corrected failed.
“We cannot as a school condone such. Consequently, (the student) is hereby placed on an indefinite suspension until you as the parents ensure that she is punished, adequately counselled and rehabilitated,” the statement read.
