"content": "When the results are negative in any school, some people think that the students are the ones who do not know what they are doing. What about the teacher? Could it be that the teacher does not know how to teach? Could it be that the teacher has malice and designed a situation that causes mass failure? This is an important matter that requires investigation. While studying for Masters many years ago at the UoN, I was in a class with Sen. Dullo and Senior Counsel, Murgor. A particular lecturer said that we would not pass the examinations. When the examination results came, out of 37 of us who were doing Masters, only three passed that unit. We petitioned the then Vice Chancellor, who is now the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Education and he brought a different lecturer. When the same examination was set, all of us passed.That tells you that there could be sadistic people whose agenda is to cause students to fail. The objective of examinations is not to have people fail. It is also telling on teachers when your students fail en masse . My colleague, Sen. Poghisio, says that only many are called but only few are chosen. We are talking of mass failure and not a few in number. It is a large number and this is something that needs to be talked about. Some of the people who fail even have Doctors of Philosophy (PhD), and that is problem."
