Education Minister Desmond Lee explains when caning is used in schools and why

Caning in Singapore schools is used only when other disciplinary measures are inadequate, with strict approval processes in place. It is part of a broader approach to discipline, not a standalone punishment.
“It is never administered in isolation,” said Minister for Education Desmond Lee in parliament on Tuesday (May 5). Schools also counsel students and support their progress after discipline, helping them reflect and make better choices. #singapore #sgnews
