Student expelled from Scots College after his dad came to pick him up in a 2021 Toyota Corolla
FALL FROM GRACE: A year 9 student was expelled from a prestigious Sydney private school this week – his only crime? His father arrived to pick him up in a 2021 Toyota Corolla.
Student Luke Wells-Jonas’ time at Scots College came to an abrupt end after a teacher saw him get into the car during the afternoon pick up rush.
“When I got to school yesterday morning I was called into the headmaster’s office and told to never come,” says Luke Wells-Jonas.
Scots College has been unresponsive to DBT’s interview requests.
However one teacher told DBT “we need to keep out the riff raff.”
Other parents at the school say they support the school’s decision.
“You just can’t show up to Scots in anything less than a luxury SUV,” says one mother.
“We send our kids here to rub shoulders with future CEOs and hedge fund managers, not people who don’t care about the difference between a Mercedes and a Toyota.”
Luke Wells-Jonas is now reportedly transferring to Randwick High school.
