Recently, a shocking education scandal occurred in the No. 2 Complete Primary School of Qianjin Road in Wei County, Hebei Province. According to reports, a 13-year-old student, Xiao Hu, was slapped by his teacher for failing to answer questions correctly, resulting in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in his right eye and eventually blindness. This incident has aroused widespread concern about the management of school education.
Xiaohu's vision problems can be traced back to around 2019, when his parents had repeatedly reported their child's condition to the school. Although the parents clearly informed the teacher of Xiaohu's eyesight and asked not to hit the child on the head, regrettably, the teacher ignored Xiaohu's warning. In a class, Xiaohu was slapped continuously by the teacher because of his inaccurate answers to questions. This brutal act caused a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in Xiaohu's right eye, causing him to lose his vision.
After this incident, Xiaohu's life changed dramatically. He lost vision in his right eye, which was a huge blow for a 13-year-old. In addition, Xiaohu is also facing great psychological distress. He reportedly expressed thoughts of suicide, which undoubtedly shows his deep despair and helplessness at the harm he has suffered.
For this incident, the parents of the students have repeatedly reported the situation to the school and asked for help and solutions. However, it is disappointing that the teacher is indifferent to what happened to Xiaohu and has an indifferent attitude. Although the Department of Education and Sports and the school said they would take charge of the matter, nine months have passed, and the evaluation of the injuries has been delayed and the legal process has not progressed. At present, the school has paid part of Xiaohu's medical expenses, but his future is still full of uncertainty.
This incident has aroused widespread public concern and discussion on the issue of school education management. It is widely believed that this is not just an isolated case, but also exposes serious problems in the management of school education. In this case, schools should take a greater responsibility to ensure the safety and health of students. At the same time, the education department should also strengthen supervision and guidance on schools to ensure that similar incidents do not happen again.
