SECRETARY FOR EDUCATION AND MANPOWER : Sir, in my view a
balanced approach is needed. I think one obviously has to
deal with problem children. One obviously also wants
emphasise the importance of preventing children becoming
problem children. This criticism has been made of the
guidance notes. I personally donot
donot agree with it. The
notes seem to me to be excellent and they seem to me to
emphasise both the positive aspect of forming close links
between teachers and pupils and many other positive bits
of advice, together with advice as to how to deal with
problem children.
