弘立書院部份教師未註冊已偷步任教

poonseelai

So desperate for teachers?  As parents, how can we make sure school has complied with the required registration procedures?




《明報》今早報道每年學費高達18萬元的私立國際學校弘立書院，部份教師未註冊已偷步任教。教育局局長吳克儉今午回應時表示，教育局已向校方發出警告信，要求即時徹查事件。他又指教育局上周五已經與校方開會討論事件，引述校方承諾會檢討聘用教師程序。

吳克儉強調，維持優質教育是教育局一直以來的方針，學校必須確保所有教師，都符合教育條例要求。

一沉百踩，何必呢！

是樹大招風，還是人緣唔好，還是 ... 還是只是充滿惡性競爭的香港教育，其冰山一角？

我無答案！

If steps taken by Education Department include verification of certificates, qualification etc. claimed to be possessed by the potential teachers, I wonder if the school had undertaken similar verification process on their own when hiring the teachers, given even mandatory registration with Education Department was overlooked.

Let's hope ISF and EDB will join hands in managing this!

Changing teachers in the middle of a school year is disruptive for sure and perhaps not in the interest of the children or the parents, but now that things are publicized in the press the school ought to do something quick because the longer it is ignored the more damage it may cause.

Thank you for sharing.
IMHO and just my two cents, it is a problem of how a school, its students, and their parents handle it when a problem arises.

Irresponsible? I will say it is, or at the very least, it is disrespectful (to EDB's systems).

A review of FreemanM's two questions prompted my earlier edition. Being qualified and knowing how is to me two different things.

Who else is in the best position to tell whether those teachers know how to teach?

Is it an responsible move for the children and parents if, in the middle of a school year, we stop them teaching?

So is it a problem with the teacher's qualifications or EDB's system? I'm not drawing or even hinting at any conclusions, just asking.

It is well known that some foreign medical doctors cannot practice in Hongkong because their qualifications and/or training are not recognized by the Medical Council, for all intents and purposes they could be perfectly competent and qualified doctors in their own country but it would be irresponsible for a Hongkong hospital to employ them.

I'm fairly certain that all of the teachers at government schools are registered under the system.

It is well known that they are not qualified - in Hong Kong - with EDB's systems. Yet, students and parents would also be in a position to tell - from their experience in the first two trimesters. Just my two cents!

(Edition, for the avoidance of doubt.)

If I were a student who is studying in any class of the teachers involved, I would rather like them to continue with the teaching, IMHO.
