Hi, parents,


How's your ds or dd coping in school so far? Hv ur dear feedback to u abt their pri 1 form teacher?

I hv a chat with my boy b4 he went to sleep just now. M surprised to learn some form teacher cld be quite rude & fierce to the pupils when they not doing well....is it true? Eg. Teacher will say to pupil: Get out of here & throw their book on e floor instead pass to them! Is it normal for teacher to treat e pupil like tat?

Tot teacher shld hv a passion, patience & a warm heart to teach & coach our young one. When I kept asking my boy, do u like your form teacher? He replied : I dunno...:( I don't ask my boy abt his form teacher since day 1 he started schl @ Kuo chuan cos I tot he doing well & adapt to all.

M really quite upset when he told me his form teacher talk in tis manner to e pupil. In my opinion, i don't find it is a right way to talk & act like tat cos it cld b hurt & demoralize them!

May need to talk to principle if tis going to happen again.

Any parents wld like to share your ds/dd experience in schl?

Hi Goat,


Based on my son feedback, his form teacher is very strict. That’s the reason why my son always ensure he does his homework. However, He feels very proud of himself whenever his form teacher praise him. I think it’s good.

He has somebody that he scared of. Also, He tries to motivate himself to do things right because he want to be appraised by his form teacher.

I don’t have negative comment on my son form teacher at the moment. I believe He’s on the good hand.

fr my experience, throwing books on the floor happens fr P3 onwards. Usually P1s and P2s don't get it. Don't know why but suddenly p3 teachers become very nasty.

While a teacher can be firm and strict, such action as throwing books on the floor cannot be condone.

You should feedback direct to the principal, because if you don't and more nasty things happen, he will ask why you did not feedback to him earlier. Then you'll have to share the blame for part of the problem for having put your child through unnecessary stress.

Hihi, mummies


Thanks for sharing. Teachers can firm & strict but they shld’nt asked the pupil to ‘get out of here & throw the book on the floor!’ Tis behaviour is ridiculous! Tis cld lead to negative impact to the pupils! Esp. our young one.

Will email to Clifford & feedback my concern.

I haven’t heard anything bad about the teachers from my kid. She enjoys gg to school so that’s all that matters to me.


Shouting n throwing books on floor is not acceptable. However I believe in giving someone a chance to tell her side of story. So wonder if will b an idea to email the teacher n ask what happened. If she cannot explain her actions, then yes complain to principal. Or do u prefer that the teacher doesn’t know ur child is complaining about her.

i think all teachers have emails but not necessarily respond asap.


Son was sick for 3 days and work piled up.
Went school on monday and was given a task list to finish.
Worked till 1030 before wifey called it a day. still around 20% to finish later.
Scary.

Hi goat,

I can sympathise with you, because my kid also went through what you are experiencing.
My advice to you is, go ahead and complain to the principal.
if you don’t do it now, the situation will get worst for your kid.

They will not understand how we felt if they did not go through what we went through. Can you imagine your kid to be punished for no reason, can you imagine what your kid went under the hands of "lousy" teachers.

If the principal refuse to take any action, then you should bring this up with MOE. I don’t believe MOE would dare to choose to do nothing about this.

Always by your side.

Hi, angel2255


Thank you for your support & sharing ur experiencing with me. In fact, I oredi wrote an email to e principle last wk abt tis incident & e VP had called me e next wkg day.

VP had investigated & reverted me & it was true tat such incident happened in schl. He apologized but I reiterated to him it shld’nt treat our young ones like tat & left a negative impact on them.

I can understand teachers r under lots of stress & kids r not easy to handle ESP. A class of 30 pupils but they shld mind their tone to talk to them if they don’t do well or misbehave!

Teachers can fierce & strict to pupils but they shld hv a profession way to deal with our young ones. Regardless how old is e kids, teachers can’t yell with such a harsh remakes! Think u will agree with me.

I had comforted my boy & he seems quite fine now & move on.
