PRIMARY PUPILS GET HELP FROM STUDENT GUIDANCE OFFICERS
******
STUDENT GUIDANCE OFFICERS HELPED MORE THAN 4 000 PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN WITH THE IR PROBLEMS IN THE 1978/79 ACADEMIC YEAR, THE DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION, MR KENNETH TOPLEY SAID TODAY (SATURDAY).
HE WAS SPEAKING AT THE OPENING OF THE TUNG WAH GROUP OF HOSPITALS JOINT PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS TEACHERS' SEMINAR AT LEE CHING DEA MEMORIAL COLLEGE AT CLOUDVIEW ROAD, NORTH POINT.
THE RESULT OF THE STUDENT GUIDANCE OFFICER SERVICE IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS IS VERY ENCOURAGING, MR TOPLEY SAID.
+I CONSIDER THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE STUDENT GUIDANCE SCHEME TO BE AN IMPORTANT COMPONENT OF THE SCHOOL SOCIAL WORK SYSTEM AS A WHOLE, COMPLEMENTARY TO THE TEAM OF SOCIAL WORKERS FROM THE SOCIAL WELFARE DEPARTMENT AND THE VOLUNTARY AGENCIES WHO ARE PROVIDING A MUCH APPRECIATED SERVICE IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS, HE SAID.
ONE OF THE PURPOSES OF THE SEMINAR WAS TO HELP TEACHERS IDENTIFY THE LEARNING PROBLEMS OF THE IR PUPILS AND TO OVERCOME THEM.
MR. TOPLEY POINTED OUT THAT THE SCHOOL SOCIAL WORKER COULD ALSO HELP IN THIS RESPECT BUT HE WOULD NEED THE ASSISTANCE OF SCHOOL HEADS, TEACHERS, PARENTS AND PUPILS.
+WITHOUT THEM THE SCHOOL SOCIAL WORKER, HOWEVER PROFESSIONALLY COMPETENT HE MAY BE, CAN NEVER BE ENTIRELY EFFECTUAL, HE SAID.
