Beliebers in the small Norwegian fishing town of Ålesund have some very understanding faculty at their schools because five schools have rescheduled exams so that the fans won’t have to choose between their idol and their education!
Justin Bieber will be performing two shows in Oslo on April 16 and 17. Many students from Ålesund have already bought tickets to the show and attending requires a seven-hour trek to the country’s capital. To avoid having students skip their exams, the headmasters simple decided to adjust the dates of the examinations.
The government had decided not to intervene in this situation because they understand that devotion to a celebrity at that age can be intense and agrees that the individual schools have the authority to change the dates of exams if they see fit.
Do you think these Beliebers are getting a free ride or do you think that these five schools are incredibly cool and considerate? Join the discussion on Facebook or Twitter!
