How’s this? I was late to school every now and then, but I was never met with police. This seems a little hardcore: 27 pupils who arrived late for school were greeted by a group of police officers waiting for them. This comes after 700 students and some teachers arrived late to the same school on Monday.

A little embarrassing to have 700 pupils show up late, especially when your school is receiving a surprise visit from your provincial head of education.

The pupils were searched for cigarettes, drugs and weapons before they were escorted to the hall. There they found social workers waiting for them, ready for a counseling session. Those who arrived 15 minutes after classes had begun were made to register their names and record their parents or guardians’ details.

Whilst a pretty strong reaction, I think we can all agree that this is a good thing.
