Getting 3s in a prestige school is no different to 3s in any other.
Same thing for 1s.
We need ALL the High Schools to be pushing out the content that is needed to get our kids where they need to be.
Equality of oppurtunity.
The world exists on a normal curve though.
If you were to take someone not academically inclined from Pleasantville, put them in Pres, they will struggle.

Why would they struggle in Pres and not Pville?
My point is that if you dont do the work then you dont get the results.
Regardless of which school you go.
My big problem is that kids are being denied exposure to the content because most of the schools are poorly managed and teachers slack off,etc etc etc.They never have a chance to succeed-then people call them pests.
If Pville was getting 4 or 5 schols every few years(as Couva/Vessigny are starting to) more people would be inclined to add Pville as a choice....demand goes up -Pville Principal will then have kids in the 80s and 90s asking to attend.
We need to up the game at all the schools.

Those that get skulla from Pvilie actually came from Colleges elsewhere only because they could not get a place in other collegesRedman wrote:teems1 wrote:Redman wrote:Yep and the place littered with people that failed-in the prestige schools.

The unfortunate thing no matter how well Couva or Vessigny perform most parents still want that “prestige” school. Educational standards in the prestige schools is one thing it’s also the school culture. Some schools are just rougher and tougher than others. How many parents would wish for they child to attend a school where the discipline is lacking and it’s a school boy zesser culture?
There is no quick fix, a comprehensive (pun intended) overall is required.

Agreed mostly.
Culture changes...how different were things last year Feb?
With the digitalization...we have an opportunity to standardize the content.
And yes change will take time.

Stop fcucking around the place and 'breeding' women all over.Your ego trip is the root cause of why these children growing up without a father,which causes single mothers who are either : working all the time and can't see about the children or moving from man to man to get fathers for their children.It isn't the system that keeps Afros down.Afros keep afros down.

Wow.
You're right.
I can't remember any top SEA child being overweight over the years.
Hmm..
Neither A-level scolarship winners..

Also, unless you are burkie or Rowley, nobody can't just show up to Presidents house just so. So that story from gadsby dolly, not making sense, it seems like the cabinet trying to share out the top awards between black children and injun children so they could appease their base.

Poverty is the main driver for academic deficiency. Apparently, you never studied why it is true and therefore you will never post one thing about it that makes any fukking sense at all.
Poverty directly affects academic achievement due to the lack of resources available for student success. Low achievement is closely correlated with lack of resources, and numerous studies have documented the correlation between low socioeconomic status and low achievement.

So all these illiterate injuns that came here according to British wording sent there offsprings to school.
No wonder why we have no injun doctors, lawyers and engineers. I guess they were too poor to send their offsprings to school.

I'm surprised he didn't say racism is the cause of academic failure. Liberal logic is a hell of a thing. He also never heard about children studying by candle light and achieving success or some of the old Indian doctors in south like the Telluckdary's who had to walk to school hungry or Dr Mootoo who washed dishes while studying abroad. At the same time he never heard of parents having the money for every boat ride and wet fete but their kids are still academic failures. But it's easier to blame race and poverty rather than address cultures that promote slackness or single parent homes

Ask people who came from poor backgrounds who ended up doing well how long it took before they learned that acrylic manicures and hair bundles existed.
Now compare that to people from poor backgrounds who only want to lime and study the next trend on tv or social media.

He probably never heard of Noor Hassanail attending school barefeet at the Canadian mission school
He likes to quote mis guilded articles that have an agenda.
