Nova's "Discount for Friends"
A sample of the greatness of Nova:
I was forwarded something that proved interesting: a couple of the old coupons that Nova used to give out to its teachers and staff. The coupons provide a discount to new students who are introduced by members of staff/teachers. The student has to state (on the coupon) who the teacher/staff member is in order to receive the discount.
Here's a clear example of Nova flagrantly encouraging the violation of its own (discriminatory) non-socialisation clauses. As long as its making Nova money, Nova wants you to introduce your family and friends to Nova. Of course, once they become Nova students, you will be breaking your contract by meeting them outside the school. Just to be sure teachers would use the tickets, they kindly printed them in English! What an organisation!
