Default Re: The new student...

Having a student in the wrong class benefits no one.
- It makes the teacher’s job harder and not as fun.
- The student in the wrong class doesn't learn as much because they don't have the proper language foundation.
- It's bad for the other students because the other student usually disrupts the class because they don't understand.
- Money is wasted.
- The school and the teacher look worse because the student isn’t learning a great deal because they were never meant to be there in the first place.

We have Chinese and western management staff. The Chinese staff are forever stuffing students into any class. The situation is no being corrected as the students can't enter a class unless they have a piece of paper (a special form) signed by the western management saying that they should be in that class.
Even if they were level checked at that level, but the teacher doesn't think they should be in the class then we can recommend that they go to a different class.
