Great Expectations and How to Survive the Education System .
These issues, such as the continuously rising standard of education here in Singapore and ambitious parents expecting their children to do better than they are capable of academically, are very real and pressing in our society.There have been more and more children committing suicide these few years . Maybe this should be somethings that can tell the government to review the educational system and the standard it sets for students.
As comparing with my younger sister in the educational system , when I Lock at her primary school textbooks ....I was so shocked .There is alot of differences .Those things she studied in primary school, I studied in Secondary school!! Despite that we are just 3 years apart .Through the changes made to the syllabus it show my that the expectations surrounding students are being raised higher and higher.
Thats the reason why so many people want to immigrant to Australia or New Zealand .Their pace of living is slower, therefore they will be more relaxed .However this cannot keep on happening cn this way .The main source of S'pore is only their people .Less people will work for S'pore to contribute to the economic growth .
Parents provide play a very important role in creating a stress-free environment for their children to grow and learn in. Parents should also communicate more with their children and try to understand them better, so as to being able to cater to their needs.
nEVER stress too much ....Seek help when you cannot handle ..don do siily thing
