Double standards of Campion School Trichy

The campion school Trichy diary of the period 1996 and before had rules as follows:
1.No groupism allowed:

This is a democratic country, why can't parents form a advisory council for the benefit of students. Why can't students select their Campion school captian. Why should only angloindians be selected for leadership roles in school captaincy, NCC etc. This only shows that the majority community students can't expect leadership roles and can't expect to gain leadership qualities. Why do such people expect voting rights in India, what a gross double  standard

2. Less fees for angloindians in Campion School Trichy.
 When it comes to fees and donation angloindians are at great benefit. Their fees is greately less. I ask are the government run institutions which have majority people slap unequal charges or fees or taxes on angloindian community. What will converts who have lost faith in their faith and endorsed a different faith know about the values of common justice. Why this double standard?

3. Speech contests and freedom of expression in Campion school Trichy.
All that the students can express as enshrined in the constitution of  India are censored.
Why can't they be free to express their opinions. When they claim that they belong to a minority community and so have minority rights why do they fail to understand that every child is a private minority individual and has basic fundamental right of expression. Rather than empowering them with self esteem why should they be suppressed.

4. I have seen the students of my period in campion school trichy shout and disturb the lectures of good teachers how did not beat students. If students are brought up like monkeys which restrain only when the cane is shown what will they do. I know now why john david killed Navarasu. Both students of Campion school Trichy. Both of them being students of my period.

  1. the above deserves nothing but disagreement...
    1)
    student 2000-2007.
    a non anglo indian myself i have captained
    class 11 & 12-2yrs
    hostel house-2yrs
    school chapel choir leader-5 yrs.
    my school people leader of course was also
    a non anglo indian(R.J.Kailash)..
    and for your information dear sir..
    you have got the context of the school rule entirely wrong.
    ie.no groupism is not permissible
    the above if i have to spell it out for you ..actually means-students are not permitted to form gangs of their own within school premises, as gang culture is not something to look up for..the alternative for students endeavoring to form their own group with a productive objective, can be to approach your class teacher.
    2)double standard's for anglo indians??
    in case you have not read the full name of the school properly.
    it reads.
    campion anglo indian higher secondary school.
    i suppose you will next accuse the government of double standards for allocating benefits to people of this nation based on a caste system.
    3)i cannot speak about others.
    but i can speak for myself.
    as a very shy, sensitive and introverted kid.
    campion has brought about good values in me.
    the strict yet caring hostel wardens have always ushered us into an array of options while there.
    an idle mind is a devils workshop.
    campion never allows you to waste your time(esp hostel).
    a minimum of 3 activities a month whether the exams are there are not is a usual happening.
    this is the reason most students(those who choose to) from campion school come out with a handful full of qualifications. which kids in other schools would only dream of.
    3)you know why john david killed navarusu?
    did you meet him and have a chat??
    don't make belligerent assumptions.
    the behaviour of a kid can be shaped at school.
    but it begins even before that at the house.
    you choose to be who you want to be.
    john david chose his path.
    the other 125 students who passed out with him at campion school did not turn out to be john davids.

    let me give you a couple of examples
    mr damodaran(former chairman securities exchange board of india).
    shiva karthikeyan-celebrity and vj.

    to wind it up
    as for suppression of thoughts.
    you have made no clear statement of where actually things went wrong.
    a clear case of hearsay information.

    a proud campionite
