Urged the Education Bureau to set guidelines to encourage the reservation of seats
There are secondary schools The principal said that some sentenced students have been released from prison one after another, and it is expected that this year will be the peak period for them to apply to return to school; in the past year, no less than 5 students involved in anti-revision cases “knocked on the door”, and some of them have been arrested before their cases have been tried. Some students feel hesitant after a middle school lobbying to stay in class or being “kicked out of school”. He pointed out that the Education Bureau provides 12 years of free primary and secondary education, and students have the right to receive education. He believes that young people need the opportunity to rehabilitate, and serving prison sentences is an appropriate punishment, but many schools still taboo relevant students and reject them, which is a “double punishment” “, “they need to re-enter society, if the school also rejects them, it means abandoning them.”
In order to better connect the arrangements for release from prison, the principal suggested that the Education Bureau provide clear guidelines, take the lead in encouraging schools to reserve places for relevant students, and help them plan their careers. Students or while serving their sentences, make good use of their time to prepare for lessons and even prepare for the Diploma Exam.”
College student sentenced to rehabilitate and kicked out of school
In order to advance to college, do not give up and fight again DSE
Hiring countermeasures Ip Siu-fai, director of the Hong Kong Jockey Club Suicide Prevention Research Center of the University of Hong Kong, which convicted college students in the revised case, said that some college students can stay in their original schools, but they must be punished such as picking up the library, and some college students have been expelled from school. A boy hired by the center was released on bail after being arrested. During the period, he was under pressure to cope with the diploma examination and entered a university. He was sentenced to a rehabilitation center for several months shortly after he started school. After he was released from prison, he was “kicked out of school”.
Zhang Fengyi, a training consultant at the above-mentioned center, described the boy as shocked by this. He was allowed to stay at the same school because his convicted peers were allowed to stay at the same school. She assisted the boy in drafting a speech to explain it to the university, but the school decided not to change. “Education is education, not punishment.” She said that some young people, influenced by the social atmosphere, impulsively express their dissatisfaction in the wrong way. Many people have already taken criminal responsibility, and the Correctional Services Department has also assisted them in rehabilitating them. “The sentences are not very long, but the punishment they endure is very long”.
Ye Zhaohui, who assisted the boy in his appeal, was very disappointed with the university and asked why the young man had already taken criminal responsibility and sincerely repented, but the university still did not give him the opportunity, “When you have the opportunity to educate him, Don’t teach again?” He assisted the boy in finding a university, and revealed that Police Commissioner Xiao Zeyi took the initiative to visit the boy after learning of the incident, and privately assisted him in finding a university, hoping that he would get a chance. The boy did not give up. He was determined to take part in the HKDSE exam again. With the support of his parents and middle school teachers, he was trying his best to remediate the “exercise papers”, hoping to be admitted to the university of his choice.
