Who believes some school regulations are injust?

Question

-The honours courses (allow some students to have some degree of arrogance and superiority,degrading the less blessed.
The special treatment of Natives in Canadian schools.(This is not fair that a certain race gets special treatment over others.)If anyone should get special treatment it should only be the mentally challenged.
No English allowed in Quebec schools.uhhh in case you haven't noticed Quebec Bill 101 can only work in a fascist country not a democratic one!
"The Math is more important than every subject policy" schools all have.
I believe there should be no honour classes,no special tratment of certain groups, and Math shouldn't be the most important subject.If there aren't any honour classes there would be less arrogance among some students and equality for all.There should only be one type of Math required for university,you learn a math course later specializing in the course you are taking on, if you are undertaking university.

Equality for all is my motto!

Math is quite important ,but it should not be a measurement for one's intelligence.Math allows us to advance but without language there would be no Math!Equality is not calorie less.Society can't have equality in jobs,pay,or other money related,but it can have a basis of equality where everyone has equal oppurtunity at the beginning.We can't have special treatment towards an un-productive people.I believe all natives should work at least 100 hours a month in order to get their promised benefits.Of course some people will be richer than others,but they got there on there own.We need a basis of equality,but after this your on your own.

We must get rid off Honour classes, to establish psychological equality to all students. This is much healthier when people are working on the same page for mind. There should be no special parties or benefits to honour students this is not fair to the less advanced students.Hey this is coming from an English honour student! I hate the idea of honour student parties, while the majority of students are still in class while these so called superiors have fun! Its almost like schools have different groups people going against each other. We must work co-operatively in order for this new idea to work!

JHKORYO: THE TRUTH

Answer 1

Often, a number of school regulations are indeed considered as injust. The point of view remains subjective, but some times, regulations are made for the confort of adminstrative people rather than in the ideal of improving school experience and general conditions for all.

Answer 2

In my experience honors courses are useless anyway, except for the feeling of superiority. If I were you, I'd pity those honor students; they'll be in for a rude awakening in the real world!

As to the preferential treatment of certain disadvantaged groups, they're there in order to make things equal. You'd have to add 1 to 4 in order to have it make 5, not pretend that 4 and 5 are already equal. Natives in Canada (and everywhere else in the Americas) are as a group worse off; they're discriminated against outside of the classroom, so to try to balance everything they're given advantages inside. It's hoped that their superior education will bring them up to the level of whites and other advantaged groups.

The only thing I really agree with you about is the bit on Quebec. As an officially bilingual country, and given that French education is encouraged in English-speaking provinces (or it was at least in Ontario when I was in school), it doesn't seem fair that English is (or would be) forbidden in Quebec. Of course, that merely works against the Quebecois, since they won't be able to work as well in the economically powerful English-speaking world after school, but their loss.

Finally, math is important as a groundwork of all the sciences, and it's an important tool for teaching structured symbolic thought (needed for logic, etc.). Science and technology is what makes an economy powerful, not art and literature. While it's cool to have a thriving artistic community who "can do grammer good" and think deep thoughts, it would suck if they all had to live in straw huts, wouldn't it? Math lays the groundwork for society. If it helps, think that the "enlightened" who, against all odds, come to study the humanities can only be supported on top of a math-focused society.

Equality doesn't work. People aren't equal except in the most abstract sense, and we live in a very visceral world. Values aren't equal unless you're a firm believer in nihilism, which is logically impossible anyway. Occupations aren't equal; some are more dangerous and necessary than others. In short, your motto sounds nice, but it's empty calories and provides no nourishment for a society.

Answer 3

I agree with you 100%. I went through that last school year. This past school year I became Home Schooled and love it. In September I'll be doing it again! The quality is better.
