During the past few hours, social media pioneers circulated a video of a group of students dancing in a class in a secondary school in Dakahlia Governorate, following playing “festivals” songs on the electronic board, which sparked widespread controversy in Egypt.
It turned out that the incident was in one of the schools that belong to the Dekernes Educational Administration, and the students played songs between the lessons in the middle of the school day by connecting the screen to a “mobile phone Bluetooth.”
Anger on social media
The video angered the pioneers of social networking sites, and a Facebook user wrote: “Students and officials in this school must be punished, because this is a place where he knows how this happens.”
Another continued: “How do teachers allow this farce? Everyone must be punished, from the first students to the school director.”
exclusion and separation
After the incident, Nasser Shaaban, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Education in Dakahlia Governorate in Egypt, decided to exclude the school principal and expel the four students who appeared in the 15-day video from the school.
Shaaban had previously decided to separate boys from girls in joint schools in the governorate, pointing out that classes were allocated for girls and classes for boys, in order to ensure public taste and respect for the privacy of girls and young people and to eliminate bullying and negative behavioral phenomena.
