Indian parents climb school wall to help their children cheat during exam

Exam malpractice in India schools is a huge problem but the malpractice took a different, sad/funny turn this week in Bihar city when parents of 10th-grade students were seen climbing the wall of a school building and perched from windows of classrooms as they handed cheat sheets to children writing the tests inside.

Pictures and videoclips showing parents, friends and others scaling the school wall - Spiderman-style went viral in India yesterday. The videoclip also shows police officers standing nearby watching helplessly.

And under Bihar’s anti-cheating law, dozens of 12th grade students were rusticated and their parents detained last month in cases of cheating in tests. But that incident hasn't stopped the parents.
