#10 Grade skipping

On November 26th, we discussed the theme "To introduce grade skipping in elementary school and Junior high school in Japan". The panels were Airi, Fumika, Misaki, Chika and Hiroya. They were in four positions. Taro is 5th elementary school student. He can solve Mathematics easily in elementary school. He always feels bored. So he agree with introducing grade skipping. Ms.Hayashi is elementary school teacher. She works for 20 years. She is neutral. If Japan introduces the system, school expense would decrease. However, because of it, students would lack communication. Ms.koizumi is the Minister of Education. She disagrees with the system because Japan has compulsory education system. Also, she said that we should treat students equally, and to introduce grade skipping system is difficult. Lee is Chinese and he skipped some grades and left out of the group before. However, he agrees with to introduce the system.
Ms. Koizumi said that to introduce grade skipping system in Japan, we would have communication problems. It is difficult to communicate with the people who are not same age. Mr. Lee does not have special friend and he spent his time studying. Because of it he gets some awards. Ms. Hayashi suggested communication test for the students. She said that she did the test like terminal test. However, it is waste of time that all students take the test. So, Mr. Lee made suggestion that the only students who want to skip their grade take the test.
According to the discussion, I thought that grade skipping is not necessary in Japan. My friends taught me that there are a few people who skip their grade. So, if Japan introduce the system, probably a few people use the system. Also, because of grade skipping system, all school has to change their school system. So, I think that grade skipping is not necessary.
