Are out kids tough enough? Chinese school— What if traditional Chinese teacher teaches Britain students?
Pupil Bohunt School in Lophook is one of top comprehensive pupil school in Britain. The school recently invited 5 traditional Chinese teacher from leading schools in China to teach 50 grade nine pupils for four weeks. And BBC films the process as a documentary.
Reason for why the school do this is that according to some newspaper, Britain students cannot perform well on the academic achievement. Teachers wonder what if they put traditional Chinese teaching methods on theses student, which is extremely strict and high disciplined.
But it seems didn’t work. Students are compelled to a 12-hour everyday study, start from 7 am to 7 pm, full of classes and homework. They are also required to sit silent on the cheers when teachers are teaching, no questions, no talking and writing down everything. Students started to reject.
Also, Chinese teachers feel it difficult to teach these “nosing and naughty” children. Because in China, students are all silent on class, everyone is disciplined.
One of the teachers said:"In China, we don’t need classroom management skills because everyone is disciplined by nature, by families, by societies."
The experiment is still on going. See what will happen in the future.
