ANNOUNCEMENT
Subject / Punishment of a female student
The Discipline Committee met under the chairmanship of the School Principal and decided to impose the punishment of temporary expulsion
for a period of two weeks on the student Fawzia Hakouli Habib from the first intermediate grade (1)
starting from Monday, 20 / 5 / 1957. The committee also decided to deduct
fifteen marks from her conduct average due to her misconduct in the Geometry lesson.
However, in view of the harm that her deprivation from attending school would cause to her academic achievement
and out of a desire for her [benefit], it was decided to suspend the execution of the first part of the punishment and suffice with the deduction of fifteen
marks from conduct only.
This is with the knowledge that a student is considered to have failed their grade if 51% or more
is deducted from their conduct marks.
