A primary school in Central China's Henan Province came under the spotlight recently after it allowed a class to watch a childbirth video intended to build appreciation for mothers.
The second grade students, aged seven and eight, watched the video with their mothers during a "thanksgiving education" class at Qinlinglu Primary School in Zhengzhou, the provincial capital.
The screening earlier this month, showed a Caesarean section operation being carried out, the Beijing News reported.
Cao Jianping, the school's headmaster, who watched the video beforehand, said: "The scenes in the video were instructive and could be a positive experience for the children if handled properly under teachers' guidance."
Cao said he got the idea to show the video after reading a news report about a teenager in Zhengzhou who slapped her mother because she refused to buy her something, CCTV claimed.
"I hope the film will help students appreciate the sacrifices made by their mothers," he said.
