What is the logic behind the 3 term system for Secondary / Primary Education system?

·         Children spend most of the time at School - this has negative effect on their upbringing.

·         It is costly for parents to pick children i.e. these three days of Easter. Moreover what are children really achieved this term?

·         Children must be involved in a three - four month practical /industrial work every year

The term should start in January and end in early June.

The second term should start in September and end in December

Holidays should start in June and end in September where children will be involved in practical or industrial work.

 

Three to four months every year children must be involved industrial experience or civil services for every child starting at 15 up to 18 years before the 19^th birthday. The selection of industrial experience should be done jointly with the parent/caretaker and school. That is a total of 360 days and 2880 hours that must be documented and reflected on ones high school certificate.
