Madam, - Next week thousands of students will make the important transition from primary school to secondary. They will be introduced to new subjects and new teachers. Many will remain confused for weeks, if not months, about the names of the various teachers they have for the different subjects.
It would be of enormous help to students if teachers of first-year students wore name badges for the first few weeks. Worth a try? Let us make it as easy as possible for them. - Yours, etc.,
CATHERINE JOYCE, Ashdale Road, Terenure, Dublin 6W.
