Don’t rush through change


I REFER to the reports “English boost from abroad” (The Star, Oct 5) and “Give us the guidelines to new content” (The Star, Oct 6) on the Education Ministry’s plan to use imported English textbooks from next year.

I am currently studying in university and the news came as a shock. I was among the first batch of students who went through the school-based assessment system (PBS) and I would like to share my experience as a student in this country.
