johnq .............. therein lies the problem ............ public school administrators and teachers are far better paid and given perks today as compared to two decades ago ........... but we are suffereing from the concentration on US-style central government education gimmicks instead of valuing education and empowering principals to run their schools and teachers to run their classrooms ......... and parents must take responsibility for out-of control jr/sr high school children.. but I have said enough on this issue already ................... it takes a village
Dont worry ............... Fitzie will put all of the juvenile misfits in the old BA school on Wulff Road .............. another novel idea .......... the reincarnation of the University of Wulff Road
There are very few illegal immigrant students in our schools ........... Creole will never be our second/national language ............. we are not "dumbed down", we accept and manipulate the political culture that we have inherited from the British
change will come in the next bahamian generation ....... those u30
Privatize all the failing Junior and Senior high schools (based on external exam resuls) and let them be chartered and cater to one of four areas ........... STEM, arts, hospitality or trades ........... Allow principals/school boards to recruit their own staffs ........... fire teachers who are not willing to improve beyond an average rating after three years ........... and institute a Teachers Service Commission to deal with the teaching profession within the Government ............ this is where we need to go in the Bahamas ....... who will lead us?????
If you think the present National High School Diploma idea that caters to a ninth grade level education for high school graduates is the answer ....... I am sorry for us .......... that is Fitzgerald's idea. .................while his children and their friends go to elitist private schools that do IB and AP programmes
