Controversies
The school was accused by the newspaper Daily Star of excessive use of corporal punishment.[3] In April 2011, then vice-principal Neera Habib was said to have physically assaulted seven students for protesting against the expulsion of their friends. The vice principal was also said to have assaulted other students previously for straying off of the strict dress code. She was later fired without an official announcement from the school itself. Ahmede Hussain, then an English teacher at this school and affiliated with the Daily Star newspaper, left Mastermind after the publication of this news.
