English medium education

Now come to the issue of parents who believe that their children will be at a disadvantage if they did not go to an English medium school. That is merely a matter of opinion. If they can afford what they believe a good education who are we to judge otherwise?

Also, because the parents of these children obtained their education from Bengali medium schools they should consider what they had gained in terms of knowledge and re-think their strategies in educating their offspring. I believe that is what one contributor asked for. Needless to say, the form of education our parents obtained from schools in their youth was of a much better quality. I am still astounded when I hear my father reciting poems of Milton that he read for his SSC. The point is, the method of teaching was much better, the system was much better.
