Bad First Experience

I ever promised to tell the reason why Sayyid didn't continue to SK ..

Firstly Sayyid went to school, my husband accompanied him even in the class. Sayyid still worried with different situation between his old school and his new school. Several teachers understood him and permitted Sayyid accompanied by his father. It's ok. But in that first day, for the first time Sayyid and my husband saw a teacher taught the pupils with hard pressure. In the classroom, that teacher spoke to the pupils loudly (Bhs. Indonesia: membentak) and even hit the blackboard hardly by stick/rotan in order to make the class become silent. I was so shocked when my husband told me about this. It was Sayyid's bad experience that made me so stressed.


I won't tell the detail of the first week Sayyid came to school. The important things are the reason we stopped Sayyid study at that school. Here they are:

1. The system of education
The education just oriented on academic report. There were no integrating system between general subjects and islamic subjects. It was so different from Integrated Islamic school in Jogja, that build an integrated system of all subjects and activity to educate the children.

2. The behaviour of most teachers showed that they weren't friendly and understand children's world.

3. The communication skill of most teachers to children didn't good enough. I saw it by myself when i accompanied my son in the class.

4. The situation of the class and school we think won't be condusive to develop and explore Sayyid's potential of multiple intellegencies.

So, it was so different with our vision and mission to give integrated education related to IQ, EQ and SQ. And it should be teachers always teach with love and positive behaviour, so children's will like learning everything in school and their brain will be developing optimum, also good methode of teaching can build their character. It's our homework to search an alternative school for our son.
