I know exactly who should be running the country but they're too busy teaching!
The respect pendulum for teachers is swung over to no-respect but with recent events I see the pendulum swinging to more respect.
Remember the ultimate purpose of education is to teach people the skill of learning.
Agreed!!! I often will tell parents not to worry so much about specific subjects on the report cards but rather to focus on the learning skills. Th goal is to create strong learners who demonstrate good character and are good citizens.
