Student slits teacher's throat
Confiscated mobile phone said to be behind attack
KILLED : Mr Sun Wakang, who was attacked by a student in his classroom, died at the scene.
A TEACHER in China paid the ultimate price for trying to discipline a student.
The teacher had his throat slit by a grade 12 (equivalent to junior college) student with a fruit knife on Sept 14 after he confiscated a mobile phone.
Britain's Daily Mail reported that the student, named only as Lei in local news reports, had been found playing with his phone by his teacher, Mr Sun Wakang, 32, during a chemistry lesson at a middle school in Fuzhou, in China's eastern Jiangxi province.
The following day Lei went to Mr Sun's classroom where the teacher was marking papers, and slit his throat.
The father of a one-year-old daughter died at the scene as the student fled.
The report said the student called the local emergency number on Sept 17 and confessed to the crime before turning himself in to police in Shanghai.
Mr Sun had worked as a chemistry teacher at Linchuan No. 2 Middle School for five years before his brutal murder, school official Xiong Haishui said.
He was a well-loved teacher, and had even coached a student who won the National High School Olympics Chemistry competition.
In China, the six years of middle school are similar to secondary school and junior college here.
The report said that through the teacher had taken the student's mobile phone, it had been returned at the end of the day.
Lei attacked Mr Sun just four days after China's Teacher's Day which was celebrated on Sept 10.
Officials say a fellow teacher heard Mr Sun's scream and called emergency services, but the 32-year-old was dead before an ambulance arrived.
Linchuan No.2 Middle School is one of the best schools in Jiangxi Province and has one of the highest university acceptance ratios in the region.

Hello everyone.

Remember how I talked about my not having high hopes for my tuition kid?
He got E8 for Chemistry for his prelims.
Kinda not surprising, considering that he couldn't draw the structure of methanol the day before his Chem paper. And mind you, I had previously spent a lot of time and effort teaching him how to identify and sketch the structures of various organic compounds.
Like I told the kid, E8 is a grade you only get if you have never taken the subject your whole life and you're suddenly forced to take the exam on one fine day.

Braces myself for the new tough week ahead... sheez...

I don't know if I should be shocked. It doesn't seem normal because we're all grouped with peers who have the same academic abilities from an early age, and it shelters us from the others who do better or worse than ourselves.
