- Article 24 of the "Law of the People's Republic of China on Practicing Physicians" "Physicians shall take emergency measures to diagnose and treat patients who are in critical condition; Don’t refuse first aid.”

Whether the school should bear legal responsibility depends on the specific circumstances, such as whether the student has a physical problem but the school does not know it.

According to the Measures for Handling Student Injury Accidents:

Article 18: In case of student injury accidents, the school and the injured student or his or her parents may resolve the matter through negotiation; both parties may voluntarily request in writing to the competent education administrative department Mediation. Adult students or guardians of minor students may also directly file a lawsuit in accordance with the law.

Article 19: After receiving the application for mediation, the education administrative department may designate a special person to conduct mediation if it deems it necessary, and the mediation shall be completed within 60 days from the date of acceptance of the application.
