Pupils polled on three top changes for happier school life

KC Ng:

More school outings, more encouragement from teachers and less homework would make pupils happier, a survey by members of the Boys and Girls Clubs Association has found.

A total of 513 pupils from Primary Four up to Form Three were asked to rank a list of what schools could do to make their time in school more pleasant.

The survey found that 70 per cent of respondents wanted schools to organise more outings or field trips, instead of only conducting "boring" lessons in class. Ideally, they said, there should be one or two trips each month.
