why they will not fail, when the a boy of 15yrs have more than 2 girl friends the same thing with the girls, do they have time to read their books and they don't care. so they have to repeat, they don't have choice if they care about their education.

Teachers no longer teach as they should. Most public school teachers are too concerned about personal businesses because their salary do not come in as at when due.
