Student Banned by School for playing in Community Centre!?
My son was banned for a year by his school for playing in a SCRABBLE tournament organised by the Jurong Green Community Centre during the December school holidays! Where soccer, swimming, badminton etc etc players play for school, club and even Singapore do have this ruling. In 2007, a Singapore youth won the World Scrabble Youth Championship and was also banned by his school then. The age limit for World Youth is under-17, can we afford to curtail students, our youths, from reaching world status or into the international limelight. The School excuse is that by playing outside school, the student is exposed to 'international' exposure compared to been amatuer at school level. Ridiculous! What about students playing thru the internet - can they monitor and ban students? It is after all a simple board game of scrabble. The School has been shallow, bias and prejudicial.
Error - Other Sports ie soccer, badminton, swimmers etc etc DO NOT have this ruling!
Banned from school or from playing scrabble?. I think it silly myself, but maybe they thought he would be too good for the kids at school now?
I say find another school or appeal decision.
