“FORWARD TO FUNDAMENTALS”
May 4, 2020
Dear Editor,
So often I’ve seen or heard of reports stating that better students are those whose parents help their children with homework and who themselves are strict on schoolwork being completed.
Well, you could knock me over with a feather! Why on earth do “expert” reports have to be commissioned to report on what any reasonably sensible person knows?
Common sense is now no longer common insomuch of modern-day life. Everybody is waffling on about “education” so I’d like everybody to define precisely what “education” for our children actually is.
I’ll start by quoting a close business associate: “It’s not so much a matter of back to basics, but rather, forward to fundamentals!”
Yours,
