sasa sikia how our leaders reason

Quote:

Parliamentary Committee on Education vice chair Julius Meli said his group was not consulted.

“This will definitely interfere with the quality of education and kill the spirit of competition,” he said.

yaani to this guys education (and pretty much everything else) is all about competition.

but at least some sober heads still exist,

Quote:

Kuppet’s secretary general Akello Misori welcomed the ban.

“Let all schools be at same level in terms of teacher-student ratio and other resources. Without these, then ranking is a game of the rich,” he said.

my child got 160 marks she have repeated twice in class 7 and now thats the result. am in a dilema what to do with this teen girl of 13years of age. it seems masomo imekataa kuigia . guys advice .

Najaribu kutumia log tables, bodmas na Carey Francis.
If one goes to std 1 at 6 they will be doing std 8 at 14. Assuming they repeat std 7 twice, add 2 to 14.
By my Carey Francis maths, this ndito is 16 today - ama she started std 1 at 3? d'oh! d'oh!
For lack of a reasonable explanation as to why she is 13, can I assume baba yake ni dunderhead kama yeye?

wewe @washiku we are moving away from ranking na wewe you have joined aki na sossion na gitahi and the other private schools in trying to force it back.
don't pressure the small ones, let them proceed to high school, college and then wakuje wajenge nchi.

all those kids are bright.

Madam/Sir Westkate.
What was your expectation of your daughter.You knew she was below average and so it was incumbent on you to make plan A,B and C.

Life is more than good grades.We have many successful people who had low grades but were good in other things.

For now based on her age,I recommend you look for a private school and enroll her there.This will help her grow and learn afew other things eg Social skills,some extra english and swahili,create a network of friends she can relate with in future and broaden her angle of vision.

In the meantime observe what she likes and encourage her to excel in it.

After 4th form since you dont expect her to go to Uni...explore fashion and design(read tailoring),cookery,embroidery,housekeeping,trade(buy cheap at point A and sell at a commission at point B).

Do not give up.You must be strong for your child.

This is the best adviceApplause Applause Applause

@BigMama, this is the best advice, I'll definitely use with some of those I know who needs this.
