Good evening nairalanders, this has gotten me worrying about the future of our children this days...a lot of parents are now fond of skipping classes for their wards just to enable them finish school on time, some do it because others are doing it. But they forget that not all kids can adapt to this new classes,and might need extra lessons to boost their knowledge.

I don't know who to blame, whether the school owners who just do what the parents want because they don't want to loose out or the parents themselves... the worst part is when you are expected to perform magic in the brain of these kids.... imagine teaching a jss 3 kid as if you are teaching a kindergarten class,a primary 6 kid learning alphabet and number work because he or she doesn't know it.

I really think teaching job is being underrated in Nigeria, because the only time parents come with their kids to school is to complain,you will hardly see them come to say thank you to their ward teachers.
So from your own perspective tell me based on your own observation,as parents, and as an individual what can you say about this new trend amongst schools, should it be encouraged or discouraged.
