where learners and educators fail...

i am disappointed to hear about the anomalies going on in some public schools narrated to me by a co-teacher, where even the public school teachers have to manipulate the grades of the students especially those who failed in their subjects and have them passed. and that instead of thinking remedies for the students' very low academic performances, they opted to let things get by and plainly pass the students and proceed to the next year level.

how can we achieve quality education for the learners if even educators themselves do not practice the right attitude at work? look at how many graduates do we have now but still they're very poor in the English grammar? and that even the use of the very basic subject-verb agreement cannot be followed.

i understand that we are not an English speaking country, but looking at things in real perspective, even a job application requires every applicants to speak in English.

letting things pass by in the part of our educators makes our educational system even slopes down. i hope our DepEd will work on this dilemma. after all, we're teaching our learners the value of honesty, we too as educators must start that within ourselves.
