Our secondary education
So far my memory goes study seemed to be like an agony for me. Instead of pleasure and amusement it turned into pain and burden. If my memory does not betray me, I can recollect the events of my school life. I think most of the students in our country, have such kind of experience as I had in the past. Our education system, particularly at the secondary level is divided into three parts (i.e. English medium, Bengali medium, madrassa). I think it is a sign of discrimination. In the age of capitalism education is no longer a right, rather a privilege. In case of school level students education appears to be a matter of stress and burden. I think our so-called teachers are partially responsible for this stress.
As they are not properly trained, they have don't know how to teach. If we observe the situation, we will see schoolteachers usually lead a wretched and miserable life. So at first we should address this issue. Yes, teachers have to be well paid and they must enjoy a respectable position in society.
