A parent’s intelligent investigation and inquiry helps schools to adhere to a higher level of standards and practices and actually promote nation-building. It is every parent’s desire to have their children acquire the best education but unwittingly do not realize that many schools they cater to do not comply with the government and legal requirements. How do you expect your child to absorb and learn the ethical, moral and legal ways of the world if the school you select has serious issues about following rules and regulations? This has been a perennial issue in the nation and even the Department of Education is having a hard time to resolve. As long as parents give business to schools so that they can operate, many schools will continue to do so without the need or conviction to comply with the stringent standards of the government.
It is highly recommended for parents to choose the higher moral ground by practicing intelligent inquiry for the good of their child and the nation. Parents will be able to avail of better school services and practices if they promote this kind of culture. To stay competitive, schools who usually desist and veer away from compliance will, by force of circumstances, decide to seek government compliance to stay competitive and keep their business. Schools will aspire to follow government regulations and set higher standards when informed parents demand a high quality education.
This is the first and most crucial step every parent should consider in selecting a school, to check on licenses and accreditation. Once assured of the legal existence and accountability of a school, then consider the other elements in school selection.
