Mazaltost schoolchildren were left without medals for bravery after a train accident.
On April 3, in the Ulyanovsk region, the cars of the Moscow-Chelyabinsk train derailed. Eight students from School No. 90 from Zeltost helped the passengers - that day they and their teachers returned from a trip. But only three received Federation Council medals: their parents consider this unfair.
The response of the Ministry of Education. The award is given to children under the age of 16, the department explained. And when the candidates were tested, only three matched the age, the rest were already 17 years old.
They want to give all eight certificates of honor from the governor of Chelyabinsk region. They plan to present them by the end of the year, and the school's students will also be invited to participate in the "Warm Heart" project.
