School bullies will lose chances for better education

Junior middle school students who have a record of school bullying will be deprived of recommendation opportunities for excellent senior middle schools, a local education authority said recently.

Candidates who have engaged in negative behaviors such as cheating during exams or school bullying should not be recommended as students with admission advantages during the enrollment process of senior middle schools, according to a regulation released by the Chengdu Education Bureau in Sichuan province.

The regulation aims to ensure that comprehensive quality evaluation plays a significant role in high school enrollment, breaking away from a score-oriented approach, it said. The regulation will help foster students' moral integrity, and promote their comprehensive development and healthy growth.
