On June 25, 2024, over a hundred preschool staff protested at the Hsinchu County Government, expressing dissatisfaction over the county government's handling of allegations of child abuse at a semi-public preschool in Hsinchu last month. Despite the parents admitting it was a misunderstanding, the county education bureau continued its investigation, leading to a teacher resigning due to pressure and a classroom being closed. The protest urged the education bureau director to apologize, the preschool section chief to step down, and for the county to address the shortage of staff. The bureau defended its investigation process and timeline, while critics condemned the stigmatization of good operators and the impact on teachers' mental health and reputations.
