An English Teacher Expressed Regret for Not Teaching His Students

A witness testified in the High Court that an English Language teacher, Mohd Jainal Jamran, cried and expressed regret for not entering classes to teach his students. The teacher acknowledged that his actions were inappropriate for his role. This testimony emerged during a lawsuit filed by a former student against educational authorities.
Teacher's Admission of Regret

Mohd Jainal Jamran, one of seven defendants in a suit filed by former student Siti Nafirah Siman, was reported to have expressed deep regret. A witness, who was also a teacher at the same school in Kota Belud, recounted meeting Mohd Jainal and observing him cry. During examination-in-chief, the witness stated that Mohd Jainal admitted he should not have behaved as he did, indicating a personal acknowledgment of wrongdoing.
Issues with Teaching Records

Further testimony highlighted concerns regarding the teacher's official records. The witness recalled a meeting chaired by the then State Education Department director, Datuk Maimunah Suhaibul. Maimunah had examined a "Buku Rekod Mengajar" (Teaching Book Record) and observed that the papers appeared freshly prepared and recently glued, suggesting the records were not from the original period. Maimunah also noted incomplete information within the book, remarking that such a state of affairs indicated a losing position from the outset.
Lawsuit Against Educational Authorities

The regret expressed by Mohd Jainal comes in the context of a lawsuit initiated by Siti Nafirah Siman. She is suing Mohd Jainal for his alleged failure to teach her and her classmates English during scheduled periods in the academic year of 2015. Additionally, the lawsuit names other educational bodies, including the school principal, the District Education Officer of Kota Belud, the Director of Education Sabah, the Director General of Education Malaysia, the Minister of Education Malaysia, and the Government of Malaysia. These defendants are accused of failing to take appropriate action against Mohd Jainal for his alleged dereliction of duty. The trial is scheduled to continue on November 30.
