Dong Zhiying ‍Academic ‌Football: Academic Association Refuses to Accept Late Applications

The⁢ academic ⁢association has ‍refused to accept ​late⁣ applications from Dong Zhiying Academic Football, citing that the school’s⁣ late registration ‌was ⁢not a valid reason for acceptance.

Background

The school,‌ known as the “Real Madrid of academics”, had ​its physical education director resign and was unable to ‍access the online registration system, resulting in the late submission⁢ of the‌ school football competition registration form.

The school recently apologized to the students and parents ⁣and sincerely applied for readmission ‌to the China Hong Kong School Sports Federation (School Sports Association).

Academic Association’s Decision

The Student Sports Association issued a press release stating that the ⁤association’s middle school sports council held a special meeting to discuss the incident and unanimously concluded that Dong Zhiying’s late application could not be accepted.

The association emphasized that ⁢as an organizer, it must take into ​account all member schools​ and make comprehensive considerations, ​while maintaining⁤ the fairness of the competition system.

Teachers⁤ Union’s Response

The Hong ​Kong Education Workers’ Union also issued a statement ‌denouncing the school’s accusations as unfounded and unreasonable.

The union said it​ had received ‍the teacher’s request for help and handled the transfer work before and after he left his⁣ post.

The union also cited documents showing that ⁤the principal Huang Youjie had signed a form ⁣to‍ request a password reset at the end of July, and the school had assisted the school in resetting the password in ⁤mid-August.

Education Bureau’s Response

The Education Office said it will investigate the incident and require‍ the school to submit a report.

If the incident is deemed to involve⁢ improper management by the school or professional misconduct by teachers, it will be followed up ⁣and handled ⁤seriously.
