Gender discrimination in school


IT has come to my knowledge that a female school student and athlete from SMK USJ 12 was not allowed to lead the school in the pledge or as we know it, ikrar for the school’s annual sports day.

It was stated that it was the school’s “protocol” to have a male student lead the school in the pledge instead of a female. I find this rule quite demoralising.
