a recent article published in the Journal of Active Learning in Higher
Education (2009, 10: 172‑184), Bantram and Bailey explored the responses of
students to the conceptual question the topic of this article seem to settle at
a University in the UK.
Four
predominant themes were noted (in relative order of importance): a school that
has excellent display of

Relationships with Students:

knowledge emerged as the lowest ranked theme.
Would you not
prefer a school where your child is a regarded and addressed as a king or queen,
where there rights are preserved, even if learning and knowledge transference
is close to perfection?
Like all
patient in a hospital, you want all care to be centered on you, you want your
preferences, rights, cultures, believes and values preserved and made a priority
in all health care decisions. As patients seeks health from a hospital, so is a
student who have come to seek knowledge in a school, they deserve to know and
be duly protected within the limits of their rights from the African rights
charters in education.
