The good teacher n This refers to the report “Shoura criticizes ‘excellent' teachers” (Oct. 31). A good, honest teacher starts work at a school. He marks the students' abilities properly, and works hard to improve their skills. At the end of the year, the class averages 60 percent. He is told he is a poor teacher. Another teacher is not very good, and doesn't try too hard. He has been through this before. In spite of the children's lack of skills he marks them all at 95 percent. He is told he is a good teacher. The first teacher is fired, the second is given a pay rise. The children suffer! Johaar, Online response __
