On September 12, 2026, Hebi Foreign Language Middle School in Henan Province forced students to stay after school for extra classes on weekends and holidays, claiming they were ‘voluntary’. Dissatisfied with the school's closed management, students in uniform gathered at the school gate, and several high school students climbed the iron fence to climb out of the campus. The on‑site video spread online and was soon blocked and removed by the platform.
