1. In some of your schools, very young children's school, the dress includes white shirt or tops. White is a colour that is difficult to keep clean and it is true about the parents as well. In Dhaka the crowded roads with dusts, black or blue smokes released by vehicles, heavy rains and splashes made by transports plying on roads flooded with rain water, playing, running and falling as part of children's lives make these dresses stained and dirty very easily. I wonder in this humid weather, why can't you think of clothes of different colours, which are light and comfortable for children to wear as school shirts/tops.

2. Please include some sociali-sation activities in early years because by the age 5/6 the foundation of socialisation is built. Examples are: sharing with other peers (seats, toys, games, even books, CDs, colours, should be encouraged to be exchanged among peers), the next important thing is taking turn every day by turn each child may lead the class line in assembly, in group activities/games, the group leader would be all children one by one etc. There are always two types of children grabbers, and those shy ones. The class teacher best knows who are the children who want to grab things first, pushing others aside. Plan for them activities diplomatically so that they are bound to take things after others.

3. Language is better learned at the age 4-6. What I am suggesting is based on my experience. English medium children are facing learning problem with mother tongue. As soon as they learn reading, writing and speaking in English, they lose interest in learning Bangla, but they want mothers to read out stories from Bangla books for them. They do not like to take the pains of learning their mother tongue. This is reality.

I think my suggestions would serve the best interests of children who are future leaders of our country along with their peers from Bangla medium schools.
