This lack of transparency in school and teacher performance is a real issue in Ireland. It means that parents and taxpayers have no objective means of judging the quality of teaching.
Anytime some form of performance measurement is raised, it gets knocked back by the teachers unions. None of the main political parties have the neck to stand up to them on behalf of the parents.
Agree!!
I had a huge problem with a teacher correcting my son's homework (math) wrong (several times)..when it was correct..
A meeting with the teacher and principle didn't result to much at all..
The principle backed the teacher 100% even though it was clear she was in the wrong.
I questioned the teachers ability and asked to see her qualifications
as she couldn't correct basic math.. I'm talking 1st class addition here!
They refused to oblige..I found it very hard to get help on the matter so concluded to correct my son's homework myself.
Ha-ha.. Thicko!!
