Too much homework
I would like to echo with Mr. Alfa Ahmed that now the students of primary level face too much pressure of studying which is at times unbearable for them. It seems so ridiculous as well as painful to me that most of the parents are trying their best to make their children extra ordinary by forcing them to read a lot of text books. Now most of the schools give the young children so much home tasks that they get no time for playing.
Sometimes I have noticed that some mothers are taking their children to private coaching after their school time while they are quite reluctant or too tired to read. But what is the result of this kind of pressure? From very childhood, they are losing their interests in studies and schools have become a panic for them. But this should not be continued.
Mr. Ahmed also mentioned about the code of teaching primary level students. Hope a proper code will be implemented to lessen the overload of studies from the students' shoulders.
