What the ? What kind of school does this- our education system is becoming a farce. A joke - teachers don’t teach and parents have to pay for tutors for their children to pass a subject. Crap education and getting worse!!

I don’t believe the words exist to describe how sad, mad and stupid this task is. I cannot see anything positive in this exercise.

Whoever did this should be sacked immediately, then charged with encouraging students to write these notes, there must be a law against this behaviour. Shocking.

Thats just sad

Who teaches kids this sh$t! Fire them!
