| Message | Discipline should be left at home, it is the duty of the parents to discipline their children, not the school system. Teachers should not have the right to strike kids or should schools have the option as a policy. As for testing policies, the FAP will reverse its stance on a national educational test in favor of keeping local gvoernments having the power to craft their own guidelines but at the same required to meet basic national guidelines; yes they can set their own goals but at the same time have to reach higher to gain full potential. |
