      There’ll be no end in the debate of the term ‘good’…all I can say is that all schools are NOT EQUAL or the same!!!


      Even within the same class there will be kids who will be in the teacher’s ‘inner circle’. In this grp, the kids will see their teacher as ‘goodest teacher’ and the teacher will be most happy with these kids. But in the same class, there will be those who would be most forgettable, ie, the teacher forget that this grp kids are around. They will be quietly doing their work, nothing outstanding…perhaps making up the numbers for the class population. Then there will be the troublemakers…not necessarily bad in results but perhaps discruptive, destructive or non-conforming…kids who UPSET the system. These kids will forever not get along with the teacher.

      So dependning on which grp yr kid belongs to, the teacher can be the ‘goodest’ or juz…forgettable…so can we even judge if it’s a good school or not??

      This is just an example and my opinion…

          Hey! All Kiasu mommies out there!


          If you want a high-paying job, can do cooking, can do sewing, being a Home Econs teacher is not bad ^_^

          Just suggesting. But home Econs is really those kind of auntie-also-can-teach type of subject XD

          Grannies can also teach 😄

              Problem is MOE wants to see paper qualifications first. You have to go take hotel management course, baking course, cooking classes etc and show these certificates. :siam:

                      \"There is a need to change Singaporeans' perception of neighbourhood schools, said Education Minister Heng Swee Keat in Parliament on Thursday.

                      Mr Heng said that as schools are geographically sited in neighbourhoods, they naturally draw students who live nearby. 'We have to ensure (that there are) good schools in every neighbourhood, and not use the term 'neighbourhood school' as an apology. So we must collectively change perceptions and change mindsets,' he said....\"

                      So it's all in the mind thingy... :faint: :siam:
