That's what I mean when those who can't write well..refering to myself :oops: -
When my girl was in P1 and half-way through the term, she said her FT scolded her classmates words like \"double\". I was :?. Months later, I then realised it was \"devil\" and also \"rascal\" as well when she recounted what happened in class and what her classmates said (the children were impressionistic, learnt from the FT and applied in their conversations).
I was thinking of speaking to the FT or write an email to the principal abt this matter but was also concerned that my girl would get \"black-listed\" by the FT. So while toying with the idea, was suddenly busy with other stuff and sort of put off the idea for a while.
But curiously, not long after, the VP suddenly set in her class and at abt the same time, the teacher used other words to scold and didn't (or tried not to) use those offensive words anymore. I guess someone must have given feedback to the principal abt this issue, thus resulted in this positive outcome.
What I think is that we should give feedback if we sense something's not right, not just for your own child but for the overall development of the children in the class/school. It should be constructive criticism with careful choice of words used. -

Agreed. Thats what i did, aiya nvm la..cause so busy with work already where got time n energy to follow up...blackberrycck:
actually what ive experienced was in schools be it staff or teachers, any issues raised by parents they will try to pacify u on the spot. And wan u to leave asap or they will use plan B : die of natural death. jus delay until u forget or the child promote or graduate.
Yup, by the time you put your brain cells on how to voice your concerns in writing, you either have cool down or tell yourself HECK lah..just follow the flows!! -
Bear.w.me:
I have chosen 'no' for upper primary.
General feedback is alright especially at lower primary.
Two matters I encountered that I came across:
1. Relief teacher for most of the time because FT goes on maternity. The reply is 'teachers are also human'
2. Someone complained to MOE , FT lectured the class for one whole period!! Not lesson for one whole period despite PSLE year!
真是火冒三丈.
In p5 right after my science exam,my ft spent around 1-2 periods lecturing us as many of my classmates could not finish the maths paper and left blanks.
In p6 (this year), my ft lectured us for about a period of two on our attitude etc.
:stupid:
