Elite kids has big advantage over ordinary sinkie kids!

Teachers' books available online

MY CHILD asked me to buy him a copy of the teachers' editions of his maths, science and English textbooks, so he could copy the answers contained within.

When I refused, he told me that a number of his classmates had done the same - purchased from some overseas websites - and were gaining an unfair advantage over him in school.

I checked and came across a few websites openly selling the teachers' editions, CDs and resources of a number of textbooks used in schools here. These resources are printed by local publishers.

I called the publishers and asked how I could order the teachers' materials. But they told me that the Ministry of Education forbids their sale to the public in Singapore, and denied knowledge of how the websites got hold of their supply.

I hope the authorities will step up enforcement on the sale of such resources, whether here or overseas, to ensure a level playing field for all students.

That's what I call the kiasu syndrome. "Afraid to fail" It is better to fail in school than to be a failure in life. That's my humble opinion.

Why can't he order online from these overseas websites instead of sabotaging everybody?

Now he wants to get the publishers into trouble too, just because he can't/don't know how to get like others do.

He can also ask the other people how to do it.

Really boliao.

 

[shOUTloud]

HOw to step up enforcement. What the fuck? This guy is damn fucking boliao. What is so unfair about having teacher's edition? It just means having the answers. Idiots

 

[AndroAsc]

Stupid kids with short-sighted vision. What are they going to do when they reach university? Buy the "professor's version" of the textbook and exam papers!?! LOL!!!

 

[longbow]

Aiyoh, of course lah, the more elite and wealthy you are the more you can spend on your child. Not just text book, later they send child to top boarding schools, universities, etc

 

[Papsmearer]

This idiot needs to realise there is no levelplaying field in life. Women do NS, men don't. Govt. help FT but don't help sinkies, etc. The sooner his child realises this fact, the better for him.

 

[Agoraphobic]

Is the system "education oriented" or "exam oriented?"

Answer that. Then ask if you want to conform.

Cheers!

The problem is:

Sinkie teachers can't be bothered to publish their own books. Or, they have no ability to write their own textbooks.

If you have a local market, then you don't have this stupid situation

Dumb sinkie parent who doesn't understand anything and just want Govt enforcement on everything. We should exile this family to JB!

Idiotic parents will breed idiotic children !!:o
