SINGAPORE: The Anglo-Chinese Schools Board of
Governors says its investigations have determined that Dr Ong Teck
Chin, a former principal of ACS(Independent), has conducted himself
"in an inappropriate manner".
It said investigations and deliberations were conducted following a
complaint against Dr Ong but did not specify what the complaint
was.
The board added that Dr Ong's conduct has "fallen short of the
standards expected of a principal".
In a statement, the Board said Dr Ong regrets his actions and has
apologised.
His last day at ACS(I) will be November 30.
Dr Ong, who had been principal since 1994, has been praised for
taking the school to new heights in the academic and sporting
fields.
However, he made a sudden exit early October this year and was
replaced by acting principal Fanny Tan.
