ORIGINAL: thompsonx Students were streamed into different tracks based on their aptitude, not only to reduce dropout rates, but just as importantly, to ease the burden on teachers so that they only taught classes of students with similar capability levels. This makes sense to have streaming, so you put children of the same capabilities together in one classroom. This is to make sure the slower students have more care and attention and get the better teachers. When I was in a government Primary school. I was in the bottom class. They stream us to our grades, and I got into the worst class. I was in rebellious mode with my parents handing in blank papers to fail on purpose. Anyway, but in my class were genuine students with learning difficulties. And the teacher put incharge of us, was the best teacher in the school, that she even dedicated her own after hours devoting extra time to care for these students falling behind. The miracle that happened with that was, the top 3 students of the entire school came from our class in the end. It's actually a pretty good system. Because slower and lower grade students needs more care and attention. It makes sense to put them together. quote:

You have absolutely ZERO credibility if you are claiming those countries eliminated that poverty line. quote:
That is the socialist part where the govt takes taxpayers money and subsidizes housing,education and public services. Wait? They take our money to subsidize housing, education and public services, and ON TOP OF THAT, gives us 100% returns with 2.5% guaranteed interests? WOW! I'm not gonna complain about this. Bring it on! quote:
Through facism and socialism which you claim is a bad thing. I associate socialism with the rich subsidizing the poor, that is the whole dynamic of it, where the rich has a responsibility to share their wealth to help the poor. I don't really see that happening in our system. I see our poor work for it. They get some help but they do most of the work themselves. There is no free lunch. quote:
The govt. schools are subsidized by the 40% tax rate on all wage earners, not $12 dollars a month I would love your government to refund you 100% your taxes, what you claim are taxes in my country ha! Now you even make me think our government is even more amazing. We use CPF to subsidise education for kids, and still get all our money back. Don't cha love our Nazi dictators! They are so considerate!
