Sad: few days after I wrote something good connecting to our education system ( pupils using the school buses ). My neighbor didn't go to school today. When I asked him why. He told me that the teachers aren't teaching in schools, they spend the rest of the day in school with no teaching. According to him, the teachers organized a syndicate and told them that they must all attend the syndicate, in fact, most, or all topics covered at these syndicates will not be taught in school. Imagine a "free and quality education" what if you don't have the money to pay? what saddens me most was when he told me that a certain economics teacher always talks about politics when he is in class. This is the future we are building, they are the students we are building to take public exams. They will be going to the exam halls empty-headed. What saddens me more is when I read on the news that it is "Free and Quality education" The children are silent, they can't speak or expose these teachers. (Probably the education is not there) those paid by the government to do monitoring are useless. They are only chopping government monies. My God will judge them. If you cannot educate them when they are young, be ready to accept their options when they grow.P
