Hehe. The problem with the system now is that it is so confined in the classroom with students being shoved with textbooks down their throats. And we're talking 7-8 year olds here.

It is so under appreciated it's not even funny.And I like the idea of school based exams, reduces the problem with the one size fits all system of assessment. I'm still very much bothered about the huge gap of quality between schools within and outside of the city. I say more field trips all the time for primary school students! Hehe.
