A 15-year-old female student at Luancheng Middle School in Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province, who scored 736, was repeatedly forced by the school to cut and straighten her naturally curly hair, and was harassed and denied entry. Just 7 days after enrolling, she suffered a mental breakdown and jumped to her death. Her family later protested at the school gate with a petition, and special police were stationed at the scene. After the incident was exposed, graduates and netizens revealed that the school has long had extreme regulations, such as not providing seats in the cafeteria, forcing students to eat standing up, and implementing militarized management.
