Muggers United
Junior Colleges cut short school hours, 0705 take this chance to increase school hoursReported by 0705studentThe final match between Italy and France will begin in less than 4 hours. To make allowance for students staying up late to watch the match, many junior colleges in Singapore pushed back the school opening hours for students to catch enough sleep before coming to school. Schools like CJC, TJC and NYJC are starting school at 9am, among many others. Some schools even declared holiday for that monday, to allow students to rest. After all, research had shown that amount of sleep is related to learning abilities and level of concentration. There is clearly no point to make the students come to school as usual and having 1/3 of them sleeping through the tutorials and lessons for that day. Teachers teach, but students couldn't learn. Some school even pushed over last week's youth day holiday to the aftermath of the match, to allow students to sleep well and rest well before coming to school to study. This smart move demostrated that the authorities of most colleges in Singapore cared for the welfare of their students and understood the importance of having well-rested students coming to the school for lessons.
Very angry with the school policies. I shall write a letter of complaint about some teachers, policies, and the PE department either to the VPs, and if they refuse to accept, or negotiate, then I will write to the press AGAIN.Wii, Student of 0705One exception to this is 0705. In 0705, the authorities live in a totally different dimension. School opens as usual, and many classes even had its lessons extended beyong 6pm. As a result, most 0705 students had to attend around 10hr and 15mins of school lessons this monday with less than 3 hours of sleep the day before. This goes on to show how the school authority never treated its students as students, but rather robots who could listen to all the lessons despite of the amount of sleep they could catch. This clearly showed the inabilitiy of the 0705 authorities to make correct judgement about matters concerning students' welfare. Extending lessons on a day where 1/3 of the students will come in half-awake, shows how wise the authorities can be. Instead of allowing students to learn more with extended timetable this monday, students are going to suffer insufficent sleep and will not even be able to concentrate during lessons.It is interesting to note that the name of 0705's school blog, "Muggers United" was derived from the name of a soccer team, yet the school happily treated as if the match did not exist.Tomorrow when we see junior college students on public transport, the shade of their eyes will clearly distinct the junior college they belong to.
