SCHOOL S AND ACADEMIES

When we talk about Schools and Academies lot questions comes in mind. Why children are sent to school? Why children are sent to Academies? What is the difference between School and Academy? Why schools are not performing well that children rush towards academy to get good marks? Why schools are not offering quality education? Why teachers do not teach well in the schools? Why teachers in Academies teach well, and students believe that they will get good marks?

Education has become nowadays a “big business”

Studying 6-7 hours in school and 3-4 hours in academy affect the social life of the students.

First of all if we look into the difference between school and academy, there are many factors involve which makes the difference, like Efficiency/Performance, information/awareness. In many ways schools and academies are same types of institution; academies are short term but also small institutions. But schools are long term institutions with big infrastructures. Now day’s schools also work like academies in the evening time just to raise income for survival.  Schools provide full environment to the students for studies, but academies to some extent provide environment of studies but lack some criteria for facilities. No Difference between schools and academies but is just to raise money or earn business.

Sending child in two places for studies increase burden on child’s mind and stop physical growth. Mostly children do not eat healthy food due to engagement in studies all the time; they just eat biscuits, chips, cold drinks etc.

Most of the parents are illiterate or do not have time to teach or do not have ability to teach. So they find tutors for their children and the parents are ready to spend extra money for tuitions.  

Schools sometimes impose teaching therefore teachers do not bother to teach well in the class room, mostly teachers in schools do not teach with responsibility and sometimes suggest children to join academies. There are two reasons for these problems, the teachers have low income or salaries, and pressure from the management, and are engaged into extra- curricular activities so that teachers cannot teach properly.

Many academies are producing good results, but these academies increase tuition fee as they get good results, this is something strange trend, which shut the doors for poor students to enter the good academies.

I would say “For Education, there must be balanced approach for promotion, where all must have equal opportunities and access for study”.
