The principal behaves properly?

In the past 2 days, the whole social network has stirred up when Mrs. THT has livestreamed that her daughter was beaten at ISHCMC – AA International School, suffered severe injuries and psychological trauma. However, when she came to work, the school did not allow her to meet her granddaughter accused of assaulting her child and pushed the matter to the two families to solve it by themselves.

ISHCMC-AA International School in An Phu, Thu Duc City (HCMC) currently has tuition fees ranging from more than 500-600 million VND/year.

Most of the online community voiced their support for THT and severely criticized the school. However, many people look back on the incident and think that the school’s handling is reasonable, humane and international, ensuring the inviolability of human life.

“The school handled it the right way in the US, while in Vietnam, parents kept messing around and accusing them of not handling it. That’s uncivilized and doesn’t lead to making students friendly with each other. In short, it really belongs to the children!”

“Actually, I agree with the school’s behavior^^.But about the attitude of the girl’s family above, I don’t!”

“Schools do the right thing”

“I also see that the teachers are all very civilized and polite, handling the situation very reasonably at that time.”

“Watch the clip I saw from the teacher in charge to the staff of the school, all behaved properly and civilly.”

“The international school has always followed strict procedures in situations like these.”

“The reason the school has to stop this meeting is because from the abused side, the parents may not be able to hold back and attack the child on the other side.”

‘The principal is not subtle enough’

Many readers believe that it is not uncommon for students to have conflicts due to conflicts, at their age, they are shaping their personalities and are not psychologically stable. The school’s handling method, although having the right score, is not really appropriate.

“It is not advisable to use American culture to handle the case, to join customarily, the school representative should invite parents and children to the office to ask for clarification, do reconciliation work and continue to monitor.. . If there is no problem, it will be resolved as above. If there are consequences of injury, then take it to a law enforcement agency to deal with it according to current law.” – wrote a reader.

Agreeing with this view, one reader also commented: “The American principal lacks experience when he teaches in Vietnam. It should have been as simple as inviting both children to beat their friends and children who were beaten and confronted with witnesses, then immediately concluded the incident and took disciplinary action. Immediately after the student made a mistake, but before that, he must apologize to the child who was beaten, and apologize to the parents. Because of deliberately delaying the case, the parents of the victim’s children were angry and posted it online, resulting in great damage to the international school, which is very sad…”

Many people disagree with the behavior of both the school and the parents of Ho Chi Minh City International School – American Academy

Answer VietnamnetAssoc. Prof. Dr. Tran Thanh Nam (Dean of the Faculty of Educational Sciences, University of Education, Vietnam National University, Hanoi) said that after the incident happened, it is possible that the parents themselves are in an unstable state. then it’s normal not to let them meet.

“As psychologists, we have to assess a number of risks, even if students are perpetrators of abuse, they still have a right to be protected,” he said.

However, he assessed that the school’s behavior was not subtle enough, did not provide a neat process and solution, making parents angry.

“The school has to have a process to handle it and publish it so that parents can agree. For specific information, the school must tell parents why it is not allowed to meet. The school did not give any explanation for that action or the explanation did not satisfy the parents, thus creating a negative public opinion “- he shared.

Meanwhile, Ms. Tran Thi Thuy – Principal of Minh Khai High School (Hanoi) also agreed about the school’s handling: “It is right that the school does not allow private meetings because they need time to understand the cause of the problem. personnel, when handling, must invite parents of both sides. That action is to protect students because it is not clear how the story ends,” – she shared.

She added that when a child is beaten, many parents cannot control their emotions, which can lead to hitting the other side. Thus, from one mistake will lead to another, and continue to push the situation worse than it was in the beginning.
