LATELY, teachers of all subjects have been told that they would have to write reports about each and every student’s aptitude, attitude, etc. If a teacher has eight classes of 45 students each she would have to write 360 reports. |I wonder how many times a year they would have to do this. Soon teachers would become the Sisyphus of the famous myth. Who is going to look at the reports? Are such reports a necessary evil?
Why does the Education Ministry insist on making teachers waste their effort and time on unproductive work? Teachers would be sapped of energy which should rightly be used in the classroom. As it is, teachers are already overloaded with lots of unnecessary and mindless chores.
