从 KiasuParent 转过来的,真假不知 :
MOE issues a new policy to secondary schools in October 2011 to disallow DSA appeals.
The reason is new Education Minister Heng Swee Keat wants to enforce character education across as many platforms as possible. So the moral message is that if you have nade a decision, you should stick to it. What MOE did not realise is that DSA decisions are made by parents, not their minors. Some school officials told parents that they can appeal but were over-ruled by the new Heng Swee Keat's policy when it was suddenly released in October 2011.
As part of new PAP, the minister should give a one-year grace period ( for just one cohort ) instead of enforcing it suddenly.
Mr Heng Swee Keat , a SPF Scholar from RI, was a former senior police officer and MD of Monetary Authority of Singapore, so his style is more enforcement than consultative. He is now enforcing character education across all schools, for students only. Teachers are exempted from character development.
In this new policy, DSA students cannot apply for DSA at Secondary 2 and Secondary 4 to transfer to another school. You have to stay through all six years even if you are unhappy - so it is a dead end for some poor kids. |
