spotlight on teachers after recent debate over dress code for tertiary students

[MarrickG]

It seems students are not the only guilty ones when it comes to dressing inappropriately for school.

A contributor to Stomp, Wakakaka, sent in a photo of a secondary school teacher deemed inappropriately dressed in a short flowery skirt, and sandals.

Wrote Wakakaka in an email: "This is how a school teacher dresses up to teach in a secondary school.

"Not during school holidays but during normal lesson time.

"If poly students are not allowed to wear short skirts or dresses, how come this teacher does not get reprimanded for wearing such a short skirt to school?"

Wakakaka's observation obviously stems from Republic Poly's recent much-reported circular to students, warning them about being improperly attired.

Well, what about teachers?

According to most school guidelines, teachers do have to follow a strict dress code, such as no spaghetti-strap tops, or revealing clothing. However, it is unclear how strictly the rule is enforced.

These days, the so called teachers no longer have the ability to command the respect of students with their academic qualifications, and ability.

Many of them resort to other methods. At poly levels, some buy frequent meals for their students, in the hope of scoring high with student evaluation at the end of every semester.

In the schools, I am not surprised some women try their hand at sex appeal to ingratiate themselves with the students. Why reprimand when you can just part your knees ever so a little to get the attention of a pubescent 15 year old? Your ranking goes up, and life in the classroom becomes so much more exciting
