| Message | When we ask a surgeon, a violinist, an architect and a politician to do heart surgery, of course the only one that can accomplish that task is the surgeon. We are all different with our unique abilities and interests. Our children are also such. When we sets out standardised tests in the hope of finding a few that can excel in such tests, we also create failures. When we measure success through such tests, we tell those to whom the tests are not tuned with their unique abilities and interests that they are failures. By using standardised testing and requirements to evaluate, the only thing we are doing is dividing our children between successes and failures - when they are only beginning to live their lives. The PWG STRONGLY opposes the reintroduction of standardised testings and requirements, even at the local level. That being said, the PWG will campaign strongly for local governments to value student creativity over standardised testings. |
