Lenny has hit the right chord in this debate on full day schooling. With due respect to all the views shared, we are masters at moulding our opinion based on media hype. Do only those students going for coaching classes excell? Parents want to dump their children onto someone while they are at work. The families are in shambles and the parents expect the schools to instill discipline in the spoiled brats. Instilling discipline is also dangerous for a teacher because it could attract any accusation under child abuse laws. To understand the misery of our education today and the criminality so to say in students, one has to first hand experience it. This cut and paste approaches from foreign systems bychild rights activists and educationists has spelled disaster in the education system.
