Taiwan Tainan University's Attached School for Deaf and Dumb Embroiled in Sex Education Scandal.

The Handling of School Sex Education Cases has Always been a Focus of Public Concern, and Any Concealment or Dereliction of Duty is Difficult to Evade Scrutiny. The Control Yuan Released its Latest News Statement on the 28th, Addressing the National University of Tainan's Affiliated School for the Deaf (Simplified as "Nancon") in Southern Taiwan Which in the Year 112 of the Republic of China Faced a Teacher Against the Student's Sex Education Case. The School Administrators Chose to Conceal the Incident Unreported, and Finally Presented a Corrective Case. This Incident Not Only Exposed the Serious Vulnerability of Special Education Schools in the Reporting Mechanism, but Also Rang the Alarm Bell for the Failure of the School's Defense Network.

According to the Current Regulations, Schools Have the Legal Duty to Report Any Suspected Cases of Violations of Gender Equality Education Law or Relevant Laws and Regulations within a Time Limit. The Purpose is to Provide Immediate Protection to Vulnerable Students, Preserve Evidence, and Intervene in the Investigation in the First Place. However, in 112, Nancon Failed to Adhere to the Proper Procedures to Report and Handle the Case When a Teacher Allegedly Made Unacceptable Sex Education Movements Against a Student. Instead, They Adopted a Concealment Attitude. This Behavior Not Only Denied the Victims of the Law's Protection and Psychological Support, But Also Seriously Damaged the Trust of the Parents in the Special Education School.

In the Face of the Control Yuan's Corrective Punishment, the School Administrators of Nancon Responded Preliminarily on the Day, Stating That They Would Hold a Meeting to Discuss and Review the Corrective Case in the Future. The School's Superior Supervisory Authority, National University of Tainan, Strenuously Reiterated Its Position, Emphasizing That It Would Continue to Provide Necessary Guidance and Supervision to Nancon to Ensure That the School Administrators Adhere to the Rule of Law and Implement the Mechanism of Sex Education in a Normal Manner. However, the Outside World is Highly Suspicious of the School's Response That It Only Plans to Hold a Meeting for Discussion and Review, and Demands More Concrete Punishment and Improvement Measures.

The Significance of this Corrective Case Lies in Warning All Levels of Schools Across the Country, Especially Special Education Institutions That Care for Mentally or Physically Challenged Students, to Absolutely Tolerate No Sex Education Cases and Never Allow Administrative Personnel to Choose to Knowingly Conceal Such Incidents Out of Concern for the School's Reputation or to Avoid Responsibility. Due to Their Limited Expressive Ability and Self-Protection Ability, Students in Special Education Need Schools to Maintain Their Rights at the Highest Standards. The Control Yuan's Intervention is Not Only Correcting the Past Dereliction of Duty of Nancon, But Also Hopes to Inspire the Entire Education System to Thoroughly Review and Reinforce the Safety Protection Network of Each Weak Link in Schools.
