Guys, do share this PAP ELITISM is the ROOT CAUSE of our Income Inequality and Social Division in Singapore which begins at our primary school level . PAP HYPOCRITES never practise what they preach. Quote Jurong West Secondary School (JWSS) vice-principal Pushparani Nadarajah, How many of our leaders and top officers who say that every school is a good school put their children in ordinary schools near their home? (Only) until they actually do so are parents going to buy (it). Quote Parents Most ministers send their children and grandchildren to elite schools such as Nanyang Primary School. “Look at the ministers, most of them are from good schools, like SJI and Hwa Chong,” “In an elite school, they have so much (more) money; they are able to hire the best coaches and the ratio of the coaches to the students is very low. In neighbourhood schools, they don’t have the extra money. Sometimes, neighbourhood school coaches are the parents,” She added that students from elite schools are also able to go for more excursions as “a lot of support for elite schools comes from the alumni and parents who are wealthy”. Academically, Wee also feels that students in elite schools are able to immerse in an environment where their peers are from more educated and well-exposed families as compared with students in heartland schools. “(Education Minister) Mr Heng (Swee Keat) is going in the right direction, definitely. What they have to do is instead of striving to make every school a good school, which is impossible and not all children are born to fit into the academic code, they should make every school special in its own way,” sg.news.yahoo/jurong-west-secondary-vice-principal-takes-issue-with-%E2%80%98every-school-is-a-good-school--ideal-103224519.html
