You are not serious about a parent only being able to visit their child once a term! That is absolutely proposterous. My goodness that is cruel, parents are people who shape us, we need them as much as they need us and school alone cannot define a person's character, the parents should be involved, after all the children can get education from school but need to know they are loved and once a term and during school holidays is totally insufficient. I left Uganda as a child, and fortunately went to day school, my father was and still is an adored, loved, respected figure who has taught me an outlook on life that I could never gain from the classrooms. I am in my early forties now and think as highly of my dad now as I did when I was a child. Please, for the future of children's wellbeing, enable parents and children to interact. Once a month is insufficient even, once a fortnight can be what both parents and children look forward to and getting an ongoing awareness of the children's wellbeing, educational progress and happiness.
