“Of the six failed children,
four repeat the first year. They are not lost to the school but
they are lost to their schoolmates.
Perhaps the teacher is not over concerned about them because she
knows they are safely tucked away next door in another teacher's
class. Perhaps she has already forgotten them.
For her, one boy – out of 32 – is just a fraction. But for a boy a
teacher is much more. He had only one teacher, and she
threw him out.”
— Letter to a Teacher
The School of Barbiana
