Cut out elite class labelling


SRJK (T) Ladang Lima Belas, Ulu Selangor, only 10 pupils making full use of the schools computer facilities on Feb 15 2017.(15/02/2017/S.S.KANESAN/The Star

I REFER to the recent issue of mixing or segregating students in classrooms. Most parents support the segregation of classrooms according to grades.

This has been the practice all these years where students who achieve good grades are put in the first class. I feel this is the right move because we are putting like-minded children together. Just as we adults gravitate towards other people who share a common interest, children too feel the same.
