Subscribe in a reader | Subscribe by Email I wonder if the Selangor Education Department has lost the plot somewhere along the line. They are introducing online application for Year One (Standard One) entry. Its a noble and forward-thinking plan, but what’s the contigency plan for those parents without Internet access or are IT-illiterate? Ask teacher to help??? As if the school teachers are very free.
A Selangor Education Department official said applications for Year One entry could be done from any computer with Internet access.
“Parents who do not have Internet access can go to the school they want to enrol their children in and ask the teachers there to help them key in the information,” said the official yesterday.
At least the Subang Jaya councillor has a good suggestion and effort:
Meanwhile, Subang Jaya Municipal Council councillor Tai Cheng Heng, who is also the Seri Kembangan ser-vice centre chief, said his centre was assisting parents with the online registration.
“Parents who do not have Inter-net facilities at home may come to the service centre to register,” he said.
Tai said the service centre would provide assistance from Monday to Friday from 10am-5pm.
