They laughed and filmed: “cake” scandal in a school in Kharkov
 

It would seem – what are the problems? We have market relations: if you pay – get it, if you don’t pay – don’t be offended. But can this hard market approach be applied to the school education system?

Everything in order. On the occasion of the end of the term in Kharkov school №151, in one of the 6th grades, they decided to eat a cake. Rather, the parent committee prepared a surprise cake. After the excursion, the children entered the classroom and were surprised at the sweet surprise. Three mothers from the parent committee began distributing cake to children.

Diana didn’t get the cake. And, as it turned out, not by accident. The girl was put at the blackboard and told that it happened because her parents did not bring money for the needs of the class.

Here is what the mother of the offended girl said: “They entered the classroom and began to distribute the cake. Diana was not given, she asked as a child, and me? And then the children began to ask, why don’t you give Diana? And the mother from the parent committee said that we weren’t giving, because her father didn’t donate money.

 

Then Diana asked if she could go home, but the same mother did not allow her. Not the teacher who was here, but someone else’s mother. Then Diana began to cry, the boys began to laugh and shoot her on the phone. The girls offered her their portion, but she refused. Then the girls went with her to the toilet and stood there until this holiday was over.

The teacher was in the class all this time, she even cut the cake herself. When we later began to find out, the school said that the teacher was busy with some kind of “memos”, – said Diana’s mother. 

This case quickly became known in social networks, after it was written about in the “Fathers SOS” group. It is interesting that the computer science teacher of this school told about him, who decided to consult on how to reassure the mother of the offended girl, who herself is to blame, since she does not donate money to the class fund and thereby brought such an insult to her daughter.

Users of social networks unexpectedly reacted ambiguously to this case. There were also those who advised to listen to the side of the class committee, as well as those who wondered what was wrong, they say, “no money – no cake, everything is logical.”

The Department of Education of the Kharkiv City Council reported that they are checking the school, and also intend to talk with the activists of the parent committee and take action against the class teacher.
