She deserves to be said (like) that.
Jane's teacher paid a compliment like "She has a great personality." to Jane.
When other people like friends, family members around Jane heard the fact that Jane's teacher paid a compliment like "She has a great personality." to Jane. Can other people say "She deserves to be said (like) that."? or "She deserves."? or "She deserves it."?
Thank you in advance. :)
Jane deserves to be told that.
You tell a person something / A person is told something.
The teacher was right to say that.
You say words / Words are said.
You could also say:
Jane deserves to hear that.
Jane deserves that.
Personally, I'd say:
Jane's teacher is right.
I agree with Jane's teacher.
I wouldn't use 'deserve' because Jane didn't work to achieve her great personality. She simply has it.

To add more info: People cannot be said. Only words, sentences, sounds, etc. can be said.
