563: Law of the Jungle

No-Touching Policy, Langley Elementary School

Coghlan Fundamental Elementary School in Langley, British Columbia, implemented a "zero tolerance" no-touching policy for kindergarten students. The rule, which bans hugging and games like tag, was reportedly enacted after children were injured while playing in groups. This is discussed alongside the general trend of banning traditional school activities like dodgeball for being "too dangerous."
