Prime Minister Encouraged Underachieving Students
Sheikh Hasina said, “Those who have failed, I will tell them one thing – there is nothing to be disappointed about. Disappointment only harms a person more.”
She expressed hope that these students would prepare better and pass successfully in the future if they become determined to pay more attention to their studies.With a little more focus and dedication to studies, satisfactory results can be acquired. Rather than complaining about failure, she encouraged the parents to motivate their children to study diligently. She emphasized showing more love and support to the students in their studies.
“Do not scold or rebuke those who have failed. Encourage them with more affection and love to focus on their studies.”, PM Sheikh Hasina added.
The Prime Minister pointed out that comparing oneself with others who have scored well but faced similar failure is not the right thing to do. She stated, “That comparison is not correct. Show more empathy towards those who have failed. Parents will especially observe how much more attentive they can be to their studies.”She urged the teachers to be more attentive and considerate towards the students who have faced failure so that they can succeed in the future.
