Private School Sacks Teacher for Getting Pregnant Out of Wedlock

A private school has sacked an unmarried teacher who became pregnant out of wedlock, citing concerns about her potential negative impact on their students.

An anonymous individual reported an incident on X microblogging platform to influencer @Wizarab10.

A private school has come under scrutiny after reportedly terminating the employment of a female teacher for becoming pregnant outside of marriage, citing concerns that she could negatively influence students.

The incident, shared anonymously via a post on the microblogging platform X (formerly Twitter) through influencer @Wizarab10, detailed the school’s decision to dismiss the teacher after discovering her pregnancy.

According to the anonymous source, school authorities expressed that her pregnancy, occurring before marriage, clashed with the moral standards they aim to uphold and feared it could send the “wrong message” to impressionable female students.

The situation has sparked conversations online, with many users questioning the school’s stance and debating the intersection of personal choices, professional life, and societal expectations.

@Justawwall said: “Private schools are so funny.

How does a teacher private life affects or influence her work life.

What if she’s married but didn’t notify her school?

Smh”

@EnemuoJohn3794 remarked: “Who tell the students say she never marry?

If I talk where the school dey now dem go say Na bigotry 😂😂

By calculation I don know the zone the school dey”

@G_Gerrard008 commented: “I understand all these moral talks, but, is she not an adult? So her life should pause because she’s teaching. 99% of adults indulge in sexual activities before getting married so which come be bad example? The school already teaches them to not indulge in such as an underage.”

@dabuthegemini remarked: “Yes it is. Getting pregnant out of wedlock isn’t something young ladies should see as a norm. It’s not right. Single mothers today if given a choice would have rather not given birth no matter how much they love the child now.

Sack her immediately!”
