Apple, the chairperson was playing with the door and accidentally slammed it into Banana's face. Banana was enraged and threw his water bottle and another classmate's head. Carrot began laughing non-stop and triggered Banana to punch him in the head. Carrot fought back. Carrot emerged with clothes torn and Banana was bleeding all over. Banana begged teachers not to tell parents because of family issues. Instead teacher asked other friends to bring Banana to the doctor. Carrot's parents were informed. However upon advice from consortium head, teacher informed Banana's parents at night. 
Students were caned more than one month later but had alr become friends again by then so they were confused about why they were being caned.

Appropriate:
1) Both students were taken out of class by FT and spoken to by the DM.
2) Carrot's parents were informed
3) Internal suspension to reflect upon the incident
4) Students sent to workshop to manage selves.

To be improved upon:
1) Banana's parents should have been contacted immediately
2) Apple should also have been punished
3) Caning should have been done immediately e.g. 1 week later instead of 2 months later
4) subject Teacher should have arrived on time so that such an fight would not have blown up]]> 2017-10-04 06:33:26 UTC https://padlet.com/stevelhp/xtznxpdhpxh7/wish/193718775 https://padlet.com/stevelhp/xtznxpdhpxh7/wish/193718815 Case: Students talk incessantly and display off-task behaviour
