A refusal of these visits by parents is recorded as well. The brains who thought up this plan believe that to test and grade isn't fair to children who are less gifted and may damage them psychologically if they get poorer grades than their peers. There are no more report cards in this plan. It becomes impossible to judge whether a teacher is doing his or her job or not. The more gifted students are slowed down to the lowest common denominator.
Personal achievement is discouraged.
Standards have to be lowered so that all members of a class can achieve them. For control, that's why. A person who can't read, write, add, subtract, multiply, and divide well will be dependent upon government. We are on very shaky ground when we let the village start being responsible instead of parents. The government should not be in the business of raising kids.
