Beijing: A Chinese
school does not allow female and male students to show up on
campus in pairs.
A student complained that the school in Hangzhou also insists that
the distance between boys and girls should be at least 50
centimetres and they cannot have meals at the same table, China
Daily reported.
The school's vice headmaster, surnamed Yuan, said there was only a
ban on female and male students spending time alone and the other
two bans were misunderstood by students.
He added that the prohibition was to prevent male and female
students from having too much close contact.
