It sounds like the CBE is a mess. Lots of excuses from CBE for unfairness in the numbers but little to address the actual problem of kids failing and being unable to do math.


I don't know how math is taught in the Catholic system but the way CBE teaches blows my mind. Kids are encouraged to explore their own ways to solve problems and as one teacher told me 'correct answers don't matter at this stage'. My daughter told me she 'wasn't allowed' to use traditional techniques. I guess there's research behind this but all I see are kids struggling.
