【明報專訊】學民思潮發起下周五中學生罷課,不同學校對學生參與政治活動有不同處理。傳統名校瑪利諾修院學校學生稱,獲校方准許學生在書包掛黃絲帶及設立攤位放置罷課單張;地區名校寶安商會王少清中學關注組成員亦表示,獲准在早會演講及藉海報向學生講解政改,條件是內容必須持平,校方亦表明要獲家長同意始可罷課。
天水圍香島學生指校長明言嚴懲
不過,有天水圍香島中學學生表示,身兼人大代表的該校校長楊耀忠形容,學民利用罷課「搞亂香港」,校方會「嚴處」罷課或舉行有關活動的學生。楊耀忠昨接受查詢表示,本周一早會談到罷課,但忘記有否說過罷課「搞亂香港」,但稱罷課對香港「不會有好處」,亦會影響學生學習。至於會否嚴懲罷課學生,楊表示會按一般程序處理,又指學生不可戴絲帶上學。
瑪利諾修院學校中學部3名中四生,早前成立「政改關注組」,成員Olivia及Heather表示原本甚少關心政治,但看到8月底人大常委會為政改「落閘」,亦有感不得不站出來,遂「膽粗粗」向校長發電郵,查詢校方對罷課的取態。
瑪利諾校長﹕我字典沒有「懲罰」
Olivia說,料不到校長其後在早會主動談到有學生查詢,表明會尊重學生決定,又謂學生若有意見可表達,結果二人主動找校長交代活動構思,最後因校長一句「There's no punishment in my vocabulary」(在我字典沒有「懲罰」),促使她們在facebook成立政改關注組。
Olivia稱,校方以尊重校服為由,不准學生在校服扣黃絲帶,但容許她們在書包、筆袋扣上,並讓她們在校內設攤位,放置學民宣傳單張。至於26日罷課安排,Olivia說,當日剛巧是開學彌撒,會提早放學。
王少清校方﹕講抗命亦要講「袋住先」
荃灣地區名校寶安商會王少清中學亦有10名學生及3名校友組成政改關注組,校友廖駿熙表示,校方強調政治中立,准許學生戴黃絲帶,但不希望他們派發學民的罷課單張,若派發單張,必須由該校學生製作,校方會提供壁報板供他們發布資訊,但內容須持平全面,如講公民抗命,亦要同時講「袋住先」。
該關注組召集人、中五生龔孫宇補充,校方會讓他們在早會作內容持平的演講。該組10名學生均擬罷課,孫引述校方稱,須先取得家長同意,否則視作曠課,要記一個小過(等於3個缺點)。孫稱其父母不准他罷課,但他寧接受處分亦要參加。
