I have been busy of late trying to wrap up everything at school and start relaxing until the 10th of May. All the marking is complete and the endless and at times senseless paperwork is done. Today I submitted all my paperwork and new there would be trouble with some of it as I had not passed a few students in my classes. There is a well known saying of “No student fails in Thailand and this is pretty much true.” Kids in upper secondary can miss 50% or more of their classes, fail all their tests and not submit any work throughout the year
Wow, this week at school has been a total waste of time being there. We have our biggest night of the entire school year happening this weekend. It is deemed a family night where parents sit, eat and watch their child or children put on a dancing spectacular
Today was another good day with nothing over exciting happening. I had homework due from my primary 5 class that has 35 students and primary 6 class, that has 33 students. 3 students from primary 5 and only 1 student from primary 6 didn’t hand their homework in at the designated time, at 8:00am. They now have a date with me during their lunchtime, doing some extra work for the next few days.
