She took the risk and injured herself. In her moment of panic, she lost all sense. Her point of argument for suing MOE will be interesting if work-stress is cited as the root cause. Teaching is a demanding job and probably MOE needs to highlight to would-be candidates that a lot of personal sacrifice is needed to fulfill the job requirements!

I got trapped in school once too. The thought of being trapped without food or water for the weekend made jumping from the second storey very enticing. But in the end used my handphone to call for help. Think she should have done that instead.

Is she daft? Use mobile phone to call for help from relatives, friends, police. If no mobile phone (really no mobile??!! come on, is she a mountain tortoise?) then use the LAN phones that are in the school to call for help from relatives, friends, police... What the.... And now she wants to sue? Blinking m0ron.
