Let's say , a student got pissed off with her teacher as the teacher kept scolding the student for something minor or unreasonable . The students answers back , and was brought before the DM . The teacher creates stories to prove the teacher's points . Or maybe the teacher threw a pile of worksheet or a book to the student .
As the student doesn't want to be rude or defiant , the student posted about the incident in her blog . She poured out her feelings and typed about every single thing the teacher does to prove that the teacher is bad WITHOUT writing the teacher's name .
The teacher happens to read her blog and brings the topic up . The teacher then referred the matter to the principal and DM , and the girl was told to shut down her blog or be prepared to get expelled .
Do you think that the teacher/principal/DM is simply abusing their power and position ? Is it reasonable to be not telling the teacher's name and then have the student's blog to be closed down ?
Tell me what you think about it .

In Singapore, Insinuation can be sued too (even if the insinuated is 'wrong'). So I think there is enough evidence to show the student is insinuating the teacher.
In this situation, my allegory is that the teacher is the superior and the student is the subordinate. Almost like at a workplace, a superior can bully a subordinate and what can the subordinate do?

since we're on the topic of education, it would serve you well to understand words such as 'insinuation' and 'allegory' before using them. Just a heads up, please don't be offended
i think she should keep a diary instead
Name the school please.
It's better that you state the name of the school as well as the link to the blog
