Being Cruel to be Kind

Yesterday, students from the graduating classes were herded into the AVA room. Class by class they went, where they spent about 1 hour, listening to the most important person in school.

It was about time that they had a wake-up call.
She pulled no punches, and delivered her message matter-of-factly.
The message is simple and chilly - based on the results, 70% of the cohort may not even make it to the poly.

She spoke about CAR -the choice, attitude and responsibility.
The problem lie with Attitude: how they perceive the exams, and how they approach it.

I do not know if the reality check would work.
But I pray that it will.
