    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the last practical issue I would like to comment on is the issue of quality assurance. Under quality assurance, I want to start with the Government’s policy on retirement age. Professor, think about a 60-year old man or, God forbid, a 60-year old woman who is still in service and she is supposed to take children out for physical education. Is it possible? Do not allow our teachers to be forced to remain in classrooms up to the age of 60 when they are grandparents - and some of them even great grandparents - and expect that the quality of education will remain what we require! The second point on quality of education, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, is this: I would like the Minister to seriously make up his mind to force out the issue of the 8-4-4 system of education. It is now quite clear that the 8-4-4 system of education is the reason why other sectors of the child development are affected, including the fact that our children are not any more performing well in football and other sports. They do not have enough time to play! It is just about time we phased out the 8-4-4 system of education. I would also like to recommend that the Minister pays a visit to Cuba---"
