Let's think...

If the quality of pupils' learning are not achieved... If pupils continue to behave without a care for their surrounding and hence unable to focus and pay attention in class... 

Is tt school one that you would like to send your children to? 

Even if celebrations are made fun and exciting for the pupils, in the end... And the end I mean psle, will the school take responsiblity for the pupils' future? If the pupils dun learn well and dun score well, who can help them bear the consequences of their future? 

Results may not be everything... But it's hard to deny tt in this society, qualifications play an important in your initial steps to your career. 

The least the school can do is to provide the pupils with the conducive environment and skills to be focused with learning so that they know how to pay attention to instructions and hopefully from there, be better self directed learners. 

You may have a fun children's day... But in the parents and in the child's mind, school is still a place for studies and friends. Eventually, the concrete evidence that can bring the pupils further in life is mainly the results. 

If we cannot even provide this basic need, why are we dwelling on more abstract issues? And in the first place, I don't think the pupils' values are desirable. 

Priority? A school with results or not? A school that says that results is not everything is a selfish school. An nonchalant school that doesn't care for the pupils' future well being. 

Good results allow pupils to gain more school choices. Good results help pupils establish a good foundation to further and deepen their knowledge. If the basic is not embedded well in the early years, the pupils will have to waste more effort and time unlearning and relearning. 

Results should still be a basis for all school, once curriculum is established and affirmed. Then values can be intertwined. 

You get me?
