RATHNAPURA - "The
development of a school rests in the hands of the teachers. Those who
shirk their responsibilities see their schools deteriorate gradually.
Teaching alone is not sufficient Teachers should prepare the children to
face exams".This was stated by Labour Relations and Manpower Minister
Athauda Seneviratne, when he opened a fully repaired primary school
building of the Niyadurupla Maha Vidyalaya in the Kegalle district,
recently.
The minister said that he noticed the teachers in this school did their
duties well. A Grade 5 student Viraj Srimal Wijeyananda, taking the 4th
place in the district at the Grade 5 scholarship exam is testimony to the
hard work of the teachers. The development of a school rests not in
providing material resources but by making the students pass the exams, he
said.
