In Service

School just started here in September and like last year, students get to NOT go to school because of what they call “In-Service”. And we are not talking about just one or two school… we are talking about all the schools here in Y-Town.

They have so many “In-Service” I truly wonder how the kids in school are gonna catch up with learning all the syllabus. Back home in Asia.. we never ever .. have a day without school for the teachers to mark their books or go for a meeting…! they do it .. after school on their own time.. or they do it.. while they are in school. We used to joke that unless there is a fire in our school.. burning the whole building down, there will never be a day .. where there are no classes.

Teachers here are sure “Senang” ..! “In Service” so many times last year, donch know how many “In-Service” days they are gonna have this year.
