This is a different school than the ones my kids go to, but the themes are strikingly similar. We know 2 families at our kid's school who have learning disabilities, and they are both marginalized at best (a major factor in one family to leaving the island) and our kids and others that we know routinely comment on the teachers "shouting a lot" as reported in this article.

So sad and very unneccessary. The kids can not help how they were born. They need teachers to build them up and bring out the best that is in them.

Hi Tim,

Thanks for bringing this to the attention of our readers.

It is really interesting to read the various comments and important to name the school , the Newark School in Gzira, for this behaviour and to name and shame other schools that also show this kind of behaviour.
