Ball in the Education Ministry’s court


THE latest clarification by the Education Minister that his ministry would review all aspects concerning the ending of streaming in Forms Four and Five is most welcomed, “Ministry not ending streaming soon” (The Star, Oct 21).

I have long been against class streaming for Forms Four and Five students, and have proposed strategies for implementing a streamless system. This issue is also linked to the perennial problem of inadequate number of students taking up STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) courses in our institutes of higher learning.
