Well said Avish! Teachers (mostly all) r just too lazy in Mauritius. N they do make a big fortune with private tuitions. When I was at college (state secondary school), I was part of a social club n we often had interactions with students coming from private colleges, like bocage etc. I could clearly see how narrow minded students from state schools were compared to private school students. It’s coz in private schools they have the “luxury” of participating in many extra curricular activities. It’s a pity that when we were just about to enjoy this “luxury” too, some silly students went to rebel. How can we expect that the next generation will be more open minded when we see the behaviour of these students?

@swtangel: Thanks. No no I amnot contradicting myself. I clearly mentioned that SOME teacher… the lazy ones. Well why i said mere… you know my friend, these days I am seeing people with BSc who are not getting the job that they want.. People with MSc working for the job of a BSc holder. I know some people who keep saying that BSc hold no values now. Well this does not mean that students must not complete their BSc! But its no more like so exclusive as before now as everyone got a BSc… am getting mine soon though It is like in the old days people who had a CPE was a great thing…then came when having an HSC was a big thing… then came the BSc era lol. Now if you want to stand out of the crowd…you should work out on the MSc too.

@Swt-Huny-Bee and Tushal: I used to know a teacher who gave free tuition. But really these are very rare. He would normally not take any money with his students and student decide how much they want or can pay him if they want.

@swtAngel: Maybe you missed or didnt read the article as a whole. We didnt categorise all teachers as the same. Only the lazy ones…those who dont work at school and as a result students are forced to go for paid tuitions.

@Ibilis: Well thats a side of the issue which is a real problem. Transport is the real problem and I think schools should have enough school buses (around 15)…i mean real compfortable buses here and not those uncomfotable tin boxes
