Yah... was concerned if we'll encounter another issue of teacher going on maternity leave and it's near SA2???? That is more worrying.

But she probably gathered must be from parents :oops:

She is non-chinese so with the dress it's deceiving.

My dd's FT just got married so... :nailbite:

What is FT???


Personally, I feel that it is perfectly fine for teachers to get pregnant and contribute to the population growth. As a woman, can perfectly understand when they need to take off if there are complications etc…

But from a parent’s perspective, I feel that the school should also make other appropriate arrangement so that it will minimise disruptions to the class.
* Eg. for pregnant teachers, they should not be form teacher so as not to affect the class when she goes on maternity leave. They should probably re-allocate pregnant teacher to handle relief teaching instead. But again it depends on how pregnant they are.
* No discrimination to lower primary students. But for upper primary students, situations of such should be minimise as their "risk" is higher and the work get heavier and more complex.
* Instead of having the same teacher teach all 3 subjects (eg. EL, Maths and Science) as observed in P3, they should probably spread out to different teacher in charge of different subject/ with specialisation. So that if the teacher is away due to maternity, only 1 subject is affected and not all 3.

FT=form teacher


As for Pt #3, I think from the sch’s pt of view, it is hard to train a teacher to be specialised in a particular subject. I wonder how many teachers are specialised in a subject in MBS. 1D should be having 1 of the EL specialised tr.

MMM,

what’s S&D and this teacher, is she good? For CL streaming, they will be streamed into different ability levels at SA1? Does that mean they will be stuck there for the rest of their time in MBS? Thanks so much for your advice!

ya la ..for female teacher, parent will be worried if they will go for maternity leave and for young male teacher, parent will be worried if they will go for long reservist leave... when my ds was in p3, the science teacher was changed for 4 times...and the last one got leg fractured but still come to teach with a bandage alamak.... :shock:

Hey MMM, IMHO, specialised teaching at younger ages not so good. I think that teachers get to know the kids more if they teach them for all subjects and can have strong bonds with them.

Hi,


Just to clarify. I wasn’t thinking of "specialised" teaching as in teacher only know 1 subject and specialised in that. I am fine with teacher coping with all 3.

But rather, I would prefer my child to have different teacher for different subject. As compared to having 1 teacher for all 3 subjects. If the teacher is down, then all 3 subjects are affected.
