A 25-year-old male instructor surnamed Xu from Xiamen Technician College in China originally planned to get married this month, but he jumped from the 13th floor and committed suicide. When his family checked his belongings, they discovered that Xu was under a lot of pressure from his weekly classes, which was speculated to be the main reason for his suicide. However, the school still insists on “0 responsibility and 0 fault”, which is unacceptable to them.

This site once reported that “I’m getting married in 1 week… A 25-year-old male instructor jumped off a building in despair. His family went through his belongings and were surprised to see the “murderer”: so disgusting.” Xu Nan officially joined Xiamen Technician College as a teacher in February 2022, and became a 2023 teacher in September this year The elder sister, a tutor of the mold class of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, found relevant clues and evidence from mobile phones, computers and office materials, and believed that the school’s irregularities led to the tragedy.

Xu Nan’s sister pointed out to “Top News” that the school assigned a task on November 17 and required 84 lesson plans to be completed within 5 working days. However, Xu Nan was ill and had a fever on November 23 and applied to postpone the submission of the lesson plans, but his superiors refused. Pay attention. According to the workload assigned to Xu Nan, the workload in the first semester of the 2023-2024 school year is 263.5 class hours, and the school’s teaching and student management system states that “the teaching workload of teachers serving as tutors is 32 standard class hours per month… Tutor work (including class meetings) is considered a workload of 2 hours per week,” which means the workload is twice as much.

Xu Nan’s sister tearfully told that her younger brother often didn’t go home on weekends and rarely had time during holidays. He always said he was very busy and even at home he was working on lesson plans. During the Labor Day holiday this year, he only went home for a meal. After dinner, he left in a hurry. “He didn’t go home on the last weekend of his life.” I originally planned to get a marriage license on December 14, and the wedding was scheduled for January 2024. The banquet, invitations, and wedding photos were all arranged, but I chose to end my life 10 days before the wedding.

Sister Xu Nan said helplessly that the result of the mediation with the school was not ideal. The school still insisted that there was no responsibility or fault. “What they meant was that if we felt they were responsible, we would go directly to the court and sue them.” She believed that the work delivered was not question. For them, it was mainly the school’s attitude and handling methods that were disappointing. As a family member, she tried to remain rational and wanted to present the facts objectively.

Xu Nan’s sister said frankly that she is currently collecting relevant evidence and preparing to file a lawsuit, but the road to litigation is too long, and whether she will sue in the end still depends on the school’s attitude. In addition to wanting the outside world to know the truth, they also hope that other schools and educational units can pay attention to issues such as teachers’ workload and mental health.
