On April 13, Mr. Nguyen Huu Tho - Head of the Department of Education and Training of Minh Hoa district (Quang Binh) - said that this agency will request a review of the teaching and learning process as well as review the responsibilities of teachers and school leaders at the primary level related to 6th grade students who cannot read or write fluently.
Accordingly, the District Department of Education and Training will request the primary school to report the student's academic results from grades 1 to 5. After that, the responsibility of the teachers involved as well as the leaders of the primary school will be reviewed.
Because if you can't read and write fluently in grade 6, you'll have a "gap" in the previous grades. Especially in grades 3, 4, and 5 in elementary school.
The Standing Committee of Minh Hoa District Party Committee also met and requested to review the basic knowledge of students in all other schools in the district.
"We will investigate which teacher taught how, and what the principal and vice principal said about this," said Mr. Tho.
Regarding the immediate solution, Mr. Tho said the proposed plan is that every morning this child will still go to school as usual according to the 6th grade program. In the afternoon, the primary school teacher will go to Hong Hoa Secondary School to provide extra tutoring.
The primary school teacher's remedial work was designed to address the gaps in basic literacy that this student had not yet mastered.
"If this student fails the second semester test, he will have to stay in the same grade," Mr. Tho affirmed.
As reported by Tuoi Tre Online , when conducting a civics test for class 6B, Ms. Dinh Thi Thu Hoa, a teacher of this subject, saw the words "copy quickly to go home" at the end of a male student's test, so she called him up to ask why.
This student admitted that he copied the answer from his friend's paper without understanding the meaning. The friend who let him copy the answer said he wrote that sentence on purpose as a joke, not thinking that his friend would copy it into the test!
After that, Ms. Hoa asked the male student to retake the test and discovered that he was very poor at reading and writing and could not understand the words, so he could not do the test. He could only write his full name.
