成都一中學開學要學生先交保證金 成績下滑要扣錢

A middle school teacher in Chengdu, Sichuan Province is being investigated by local education authorities for collecting cash deposits from students that she planned to dock if they got bad grades.

四川省成都市一名中學教師正在接受教育部門的調查，起因是這名教師向學生預收錢款，如果學生成績不好就會扣錢。

The policy was brought to light after a netizen posted that the teacher, surnamed Xiao, had collected a minimum of 100 yuan ($14.6) from each of her students at Fuxing Middle School at the beginning of the spring semester.

一位網友日前發帖曝光稱，春季學期剛開始，福興中學肖老師就向每個學生收取了至少100元（約合14.6美元）的錢款。

Xiao said her students had come up with the system, which would deduct fines from the deposits for falling grades or "wrong answers."

肖老師稱，這個法子是學生們想出來的，如果學生成績下降或者“回答錯誤”就會扣錢。

"It was their idea to put down cash for disciplinary purposes. And it was openly discussed with parents, who also approved," Xiao said.

肖老師說道：“將現金用於紀律處分是學生們的主意。這個政策也和家長們公開討論過了，他們也同意了。”

"We handed in money voluntarily," said a student in the class. "The money would be returned to us eventually anyway."

肖老師班上的一名學生表示：“我們都是自願交錢的。不管如何，錢最終都會還給我們。”

County education bureau officials forced Xiao to return a total 2,660 yuan she collected from her students. The investigation is still underway.

該縣教育局官員已經要求肖老師將收集的2660元錢款歸還學生。目前對該事件的調查仍在進行中。
