Abstract Older adults can reduce fall risk in their homes and the community. Health care professionals (HCP) have a role in preventing falls. An interprofessional team of HCPs at a comprehensive cancer center created and delivered educational workshops to increase knowledge about falls prevention. Educational workshops were provided in community centers, libraries, places of worship and at local hospitals to medically underserved, diverse community members, caregivers and HCP. An Occupational (OT) and Physical Therapist (PT) taught three workshops together and the OT taught nine workshops. Workshops included fall prevention, home modifications, safe patient handling (SPH), and the role of OT/ PT in geriatric oncology care. Practical and culturally competent steps were emphasized, with translation of written materials and live interpretation provided as appropriate. Knowledge increase was assessed, and post-session qualitative data was collected. The mean age of community members was 68 years, of nurses was 42, and of caregivers 63. A majority of participants were female. 220 older adults completed surveys, 40 caregivers, and 11 registered nurses. The Falls Prevention workshops with unmatched (n=79) and matched data (n=140) showed significant improvements in knowledge [t(135)=-3.33, p<0.001; t(139)=-4.03, p<.001; respectively). Caregivers who participated in the SPH workshop improved their learning for the unmatched (n=12) and matched data (n=28) after participating in the workshops [t(22)=-3.50, p=.002; t(27)=-3.95, p<.001] respectively. For nurses, the change in scores from pre (M=.56) to post scores (M=.73) were significant (t=-2.76, df=10, p=.02). Caregivers and HCPs benefit from continued education to promote safer, holistic care for family members and patients.

Objectives. Survey current experience with Skin to Skin care (SSC) in Pennsylvania Maternity Centers. Study Design. The nursing director of each Maternity Center in PA (n = 95) was sent an on-line confidential survey querying SSC practices. Responses were compared by delivery size, location, and nature of affiliation. Statistics analyzed by chi-square and student t-test. Results. Of these 64/95 MCs (67%) responded. All allowed SSC after vaginal deliveries, 55% after C-section, 73% mother’s room. Monitoring included delivery room nurse (94%) with support from other providers (61%), family members (37%), and electronic monitoring (5%). If SSC occurred in mother’s room all reported family education on safe practices. 40% were aware of adverse SSC events, including falls and suffocation. About 80% educated staff about infant safety during SSC. Conclusions. Gaps in education and supervision during SSC were identified. Additional education and standardization of best practices are needed to reduce risks from falls and suffocation during SSC.

Summary.This study examines the relationship between family size and children’s education in Bangladesh for two periods – 1982 with high fertility and 1996 with low fertility – using data from the Matlab Health and Demographic Surveillance System of the ICDDR,B: Centre for Health and Population Research. Children aged 8–17 years (27,448 in 1982 and 32,635 in 1996) were selected from households where the mother was aged 30–49 years and the father was the head of household. Children’s education was measured in terms of completed years of schooling: at least class 1 (among 8–17 year olds), at least class 5 (among 12–17 year olds) and at least class 7 (among 15–17 year olds). After controlling for all variables in the multivariate analyses, level of children’s education was not found to be associated with family size during the high fertility period. The family size–education relationship became negative during the low fertility period. In both periods children of educated mothers from wealthier households and those who lived close to primary/high schools had more education, but this socioeconomic difference reduced substantially over time. Boys had more education than girls during the high fertility period but this difference disappeared during the low fertility period. As birth rates fall and the proportion of children from small families increases an increase in children’s education is to be expected.

Background: Unintentional injuries among children are an emerging public health problem. Accidental injuries are one of the leading causes of death, hospitalization and disability across the world. Fragile, helpless and innocent, an infant enters the world completely dependent on its caretakers. Children’s environment plays a critical role, both in the occurrence and severity of an injury. Hence, this study was carried out to assess the domestic unintentional injuries among under-five children. Methods: This cross-sectional study was undertaken in the urban field practice area of Teerthanker Mahaveer Medical College and Research Centre Moradabad. Information about domestic accidents among the family members in the last one year from the date of survey was obtained by interviewing the head of the family or responsible member of the family age ≥ 18 year. Study target sample size was taken 440 was selected by using two stage cluster sampling technique. Results: Out of 440 children 20% (88) reported to have experience unintentional injuries. History of fall was the commonest 42 (47.3%) form of injury reported followed by injury due to sharp object and road traffic accident. Toddlers, male child were affected more. Only 48.9% caregivers were aware about first aid measures to be taken after unintentional injury, 71.3% participants reported implementation of preventive measures. Conclusions: Unintentional injuries are becoming more common. We recommend for prompt and target group interventions in order to prevent and control the domestic accidents, promotion of household safety measures and creation of awareness among the community using information, education, and communication (IEC) interventions have to be undertaken.

ABSTRACT Background: A major goal in neurotrauma management is the prevention of secondary neuronal injuries. This goal is time bound as neurological deficits once established are usually irreversible. Late presentation is the norm in most neurotrauma patients in developing countries. Aims: The aim of the study was to review the timing of presentation of neurotrauma patients and the possible causes of their late presentation for neurosurgical care in our practice. Methods: A cross-sectional study of a 4-month prospective database of neurotrauma patients presenting to the University College Hospital, Ibadan, was done. The participants’ biodata, injury characteristics, initial-care details before referral, and information on timing and causes of delay were analyzed. Results: The study subjects included 111 patients, 80.2% (89/111) were males, and 52.8% aged 21–40 years. Head injury (HI), spinal cord injury (SCI), and combined HI and SCI occurred, respectively, in 80.2%, 14.4%, and 5.4%. Road accidents followed by falls were seen in 73.9% and 14.4% (16), respectively. Just 46.8% (52/111) cases presented within 12 h of injury and only 37 (33.3%) within 4 h. Majority, 83.8% (93/111) were referrals from primary care. These referrals were delayed in 81.7% (76/93) of these. The referring health facilities were located intracity with our center in 54%. Other causes of delayed presentation of these study participants included long-distance travel to our center, lack of funds, or a combination of the above factors. Eighty-nine patients (80.2%) were brought in by family members and the remaining minority by passers-by and road safety personnel. Conclusions: Delayed referral from primary care features prominently in timing of presentation of neurotrauma patients in Nigeria. There is a need for collaboration as well as continuing medical education between the neurotrauma specialists and primary care physicians.

e24022 Background: Most of the care for adults with chronic/debilitating illnesses is provided by unpaid family members. There is little information on caregiver burden in older patients with cancer in India. Methods: This was an observational study conducted in the geriatric oncology clinic at the Tata Memorial Centre, a tertiary care oncology center in Mumbai, India. The Fronto Temporal Lobe Disorders (FTLDA) caregiver burden scale was administered to the caregiver who accompanied the patient to the geriatric clinic. The scale has 22 questions, each scored from 0 to 4. The points were added to give the total caregiver burden score. The severity of the caregiver burden was scored based on the standard key: 0-20 little or no burden, 21-40 mild to moderate burden, 41-60 moderate to severe burden, 61-88 severe burden. Descriptive statistics were used for demographic & clinical variables. The factors impacting the caregiver burden were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The caregiver burden score was the dependent variable in this analysis. The independent variables evaluated were patient-related factors (sex, education, primary tumor type), vulnerabilities noted on the geriatric assessment (function & falls, psychological status -depression & anxiety, cognition, nutrition, comorbidity) and caregiver-related, i.e., the relationship of the caregiver with the patient. Results: The caregiver burden scores were obtained from the caregivers of 127 older Indian patients with cancer between June 2020 & January 2021. The median age of patients in this study was 69 years (range, 60-90). There were 96 (75.6%) males; the two commonest malignancies were lung carcinoma (47 patients, 37%) & gastrointestinal cancers (46 patients, 36.2%). The relationship of the caregiver to the patient was child (94, 74%), in-law (12, 9.4%), spouse (7, 5.5%), grandchild (6, 4.7%) and other relative (8, 6.3%). The median caregiver burden score was 12 (IQR, 6-20). The caregiver burden was -little/no in 97 (76.4%), mild-moderate in 25 (19.7%), moderate-severe in 4 (3.1%) & severe in 1 (0.8%) of the caregivers assessed. On multivariate analysis, the factors that significantly impacted the caregiver burden score included the sex of the patient ( P= .0445) & the presence of psychological problems ( P= .0164). In the univariate analysis, the caregiver burden was higher in caregivers of female patients (median score, 16 [IQR 9-25] versus 10 [IQR 5-19], P= .02036). Caregivers of patients with psychological issues also had higher caregiver burden (median score, 19 [IQR 10-28] versus 10 [IQR 5.25-17], P= .00224). Conclusions: The caregiver burden was low in older Indian patients with cancer. Higher caregiver burden was experienced by the caregivers of female patients & patients with psychological disorders.

AbstractObjective:Consumption of fruits and vegetables (F&V) among adolescents falls below recommendations in many Western countries. The impact of social and emotional aspects of family life on adolescent dietary behaviour may contribute to this, yet remains under-investigated. The present study examines the association between adolescents’ perceptions of emotional home atmosphere (EHA) and their F&V consumption frequency.Design:An FFQ was used to assess F&V consumption frequency. EHA was assessed by an eight-item measure with three subscales: perceived home warmth, strictness and relational tension. EHA subscales were used as binary variables: a score equal to or above the median value was considered as a higher perception, while a score below the median was considered as a lower perception of the EHA in question. Country differences in meeting the European 5-a-day recommendations were described. Further, the association between EHA and F&V consumption frequency was investigated using multiple linear regression.Setting:Regional examination centres in eight European countries.Participants:Adolescents (n 3196) aged 12–18 years.Results:The mean F&V consumption frequency was 3·27 (sd 2·84) times/d. Only 16·1 % of boys and 18 % of girls in our study sample met the recommendation of five F&V daily. After controlling for age, sex, education level of the parents and country of origin, perceived home warmth was associated with a 16 (95 % CI 9, 22) % higher F&V consumption frequency (P < 0·001).Conclusions:F&V consumption frequency was suboptimal in the survey areas. Interventions targeting perceived warmth as a component of EHA could potentially have a positive effect on adolescents’ dietary behaviour.

The article is devoted to the question of external assistance to foster families. While in an orphanage a child in
need of aid falls into the target audience of the activities of charities and other organizations. Orphanages are well
informed. There is a well-established system of interaction of orphanages with the guardianship and charitable
organizations. The hierarchy system of care for orphans allows, at the initiative of the teachers and administrative
staff, to cope with the problems associated with the pedagogical process in the child’s upbringing, with the status
of orphans residing at the institution. However, there may be problems in attracting external assistance: more
stringent are the requirements for those people who are willing to volunteer and work with children. When the child
releases into the foster care, his status changes, and foster parents are forced to decide difficult questions arise
concerning the health, education, further education, household needs, physical, psychological and socio-cultural
adaptation of the child. In blood family, the child is in the stages of preparation for independent living gradually.
Adoptive parents are forced into raising a child who already has social experience, and often negative. In the
public mind the question of assistance of various kinds, such a child is not as acute: there is a man who took upon
himself the authority of the care of the minor, this is his foster parent (foster parents). It is necessary to inform foster
parents about what funds are working with orphans; what is the target audience of the Fund, and how it can help
prepare a foster child for future life. In the article there is the possibility of application to various funds on solving
some of the problems, as well as for positive pedagogical effect of the process of obtaining external assistance. In
addition, the article provides an example of the activities of the Center foster families “Tenderness” in the village of
Vyritsa of the Leningrad region, which is a unique community of foster families, leading activities to foster children
and their preparation for future life through support.

Falls with or without injuries among the elderly have become a public health concern, with falls among adults age 65 years and older increasing every year. Nurses play a role in ensuring patient safety by following fall prevention guidelines. The purpose of this evidence-based study was to implement the RE-AIM evaluation tool to determine the impact of the Safe Five program on staff compliance with the program; patients' awareness of the need for falls prevention; and falls among older adults, ages 65 years and older, admitted to an acute care nursing unit. The literature supports implementing a falls prevention program with multifactorial and interdisciplinary components, and an evaluation plan to help decrease falls in acute care settings. The Safe Five falls prevention program was implemented on the acute care nursing unit in an effort to decrease the inpatient falls rate on the unit. The inpatient falls data were collected retrospectively, 2 years pre implementation of the Safe Five program, and 8 to 10 months post implementation. Data were collected from the Safe Five checklists, recorded inpatient fall rates, and high fall risk chart audits provided by staff and nurse manager; they were then analyzed using the RE-AIM evaluation tool. The long-term effects of the Safe Five program include an 18% increase in patients' awareness of the importance of preventing falls, an 18% increase in staff compliance with the program, and a 14% decrease in inpatient fall rate on the unit. It is projected that the decrease in inpatient falls will result in decreased healthcare costs and improved patient satisfaction with the healthcare system, communication among the interdisciplinary team, and health outcomes for the patients.

Full textAbstract:
This qualitative study aims to explore the parents’ or other family members’ experiences in participating in music therapy sessions with their children with special needs. This aim leads to three research questions which were; 1) Can music therapy help to achieve aims set out for individual children with special needs and their parents or other family members 2) What are the functions of music therapy in nurturing communication between the parents or other family members and their children? and 3) How can the music therapist develop ways in which parents or other family members can use music to help their children? Six children who are attending the Special Education Centre, region 9 in Thailand, aged four to twelve years old with their family members who are their primary carers, participated in 24 music therapy sessions. Each session was videoed and the video recordings were discussed every two weeks with the carers. The carers were interviewed three times by the research assistants. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was employ to evaluate data collected from interviews. Furthermore, there were two home visits, one after a month when the 24th session was finished and another visit was two months after the 24th session was finished. From the interview analysis, there are 28 themes under five categories namely: 1) The carers’ expectations of the music therapy 2) The carers’ experience of seeing their children in the music therapy sessions 3) The carers’ experiences of seeing themselves in the sessions 4) The carers’ experiences of reviewing the video recordings from the music therapy sessions and 5) The carers’ experiences of using music at home. It can be summarised that music therapy made a positive impact on the children and their carers. The finding highlighted how the music therapy enhanced the social and communication skills of the children. Moreover, involving the carers in the sessions enabled the carers to have positive experiences with their children and these experiences led the carers to see and interact with their children differently. The findings suggest the ways to work with the carers in a therapeutic process and how to encourage the carers to use music at home with their children.

This study examined the family literacy practices of ten adult participants who
attend the Tembaletu Adult Basic Education (ABE) Centre in rural KwaZulu-
Natal. The aim was to explore the influence of the ABE programme on these
practices? The concept of family literacy in this rural context was interrogated.
This is a qualitative case study, and the data collection techniques included
individual interview, focus group interviews, observation, and document analysis.
Findings revealed that women engaged in varied literacy practices in their homes.
Story telling was more common than reading to children. The participants in the
study for the first time are able to engage with their children in school related
literacy activities. The extent to which the participants and their children supported
each other in their literacy development was dependent on the levels of literacy.
The Adult Basic Education programme had a direct impact on the literacy practices in the families of the participants. The benefits reported by the participants included personal empowerment, enhanced self-image, and the acquisition of literacy life skills that are crucial to the health and well being of their families. The study highlights tensions between the content of adult programmes and family literacy practices valued by the participants. Other key issues that emerged in the study are: the link between family literacy and culture; gender and family literacy; family literacy in the context of HIV/Aids. The findings in this study valuable perspectives on emerging family literacy in a rural context - an area of study that is in its infancy in South Africa.Thesis (M.Ed.) - University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2005.

In my thesis, I focused on the importance and possibilities of cooperation educational care centers and family. The result of my work is the evaluation of the cooperation between educational care center and families and to identify the limits of this cooperation. Marginally I also gained insight into the family cooperation with non-profit organizations, which are an important part of helping children with behavioral disorders. The theoretical part consists of three major entities that play a vital role in the area of behavioral disorders in children. Firstly, children with behavioral disorders are the first entity. In the first part I have tried thus shed light on the developmental aspects of adolescence and to identify the typical manifestations of this age. Also, I didn´t forget to identify specific behavioral disorders of children. The parents of these children are equally important because they take a primary role in education. I defined characteristic, basic aspects and functions of the family with these children and I described the classic characters of the family in modern times. And last but not least, I have dealt with a center of educational care - which is involved in the prevention of behavioral disturbance. This section will be interesting especially for those who don´t know this institution and have no awareness of its work. The empirical part presents the results of qualitative research, within which we addressed five employees educational care center in Domažlice and thirty parents of children with behavioral disorders. The interview provided me valuable information and insight into the issue with their particular experience with the boarding stay of their child in SVP Domažlice. I wanted to emphasize the importance of cooperation through the choice of this topic and thanks to this job I can say that I have reaffirmed this fact. The results of research will make available to SVP Domažlice, thanks to which research could be carried out.

Abstract This dissertation is aimed at exploring the utilization of select works by children's book author Markéta Zinnerová in literary education. The selected texts all feature a child protagonist in a difficult life situation with regards to their immediate or wider family circle. The vantage point was primarily the ouvre of M. Zinnerová, particularly the titles Indiáni z Větrova ('The Indians from Větrov'), Tajemství proutěného košíku ('The Secret of the Woven Basket'), and Kde padají hvězdy ('Where Stars Fall'). The dissertation is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part contains first a description of the general characteristics of narrative prose from the life of children with an emphasis on the issues of personal and social education. Furthermore, it focuses in detail on the utilisation of prose in literary education in primary schools, the methodology and different types of literary analysis and the insertion of all these activities into the relevant curriculum. The practical part deals with concrete classical and activising methods of application with regards to select texts from M. Zinnerová's works. The aim of the dissertation was to create work sheets based on excerpts from the prose of this author and to test them in practice in the environment of an after-school care centre where primary school children were to engage with them. This part of the dissertation describes said work sheets as well as the procedural methodology and the reasoning behind their creation. The work sheets were used when working with 3rd -grade school children in an after-school care centre. The ways in which they cooperated with us and were captivated by the texts, as well as the precise way in which the activities involved in working with the proposed sheets proceeded are described in the following chapter of the practical part. The concluding reflection upon the utilisation of the work sheets proposes certain possible corrections, expansions or other possible uses of these work sheets.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This chapter examines the Croatian Government’s policies for Croats abroad with a focus on social protection. The history of Croatian diaspora-homeland engagement over a century culminating in the establishment of the independent state of Croatia in 1991, informs the prioritization of Croats abroad in the social policy landscape. In addition to outlining the diaspora and consular infrastructures, culture and education policies, the protection of Croats abroad in the areas of health, employment, pensions and family-related benefits is reviewed. The findings of this analysis reveal that while the Croatian government continues to profess its commitment to providing a comprehensive program of social protection for Croats abroad, policies guaranteeing substantive social protection are mainly found in those (primarily post-Yugoslav) states where Croatia has negotiated bilateral agreements for Croats identified as a minority. The provision of protection for Croats abroad in general therefore falls somewhat short in so far as a robust, concrete set of measures are concerned.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractIntense urbanization process in Brazil and Latin America has increasingly limited young children, since birth, to access outdoor spaces, especially green areas. Moreover, as conceptions of babies in domestic care support confinement practices, apprehending infants’ constitutive specificities as being intertwined with broader socio-cultural contexts requires further investigation. Notwithstanding the challenges, Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) institutions can be promising places to provide babies with daily contacts and appropriation of external areas amid an expanded collective experience. This chapter tackles the process of insertion and appropriation of outdoor spaces for infants and toddlers. We bring a case study from a Brazilian daycare centre with planned multiple outdoor environments, diversified spatial arrangements and natural elements. The empirical material, referring to the transition year of a group of under-twos, includes monthly recordings of everyday routine, interviews, field notes, institutional documents. We describe and analyze various outdoor spaces and socio-spatial practices of the daycare centre based on the cultural-historical perspective of the Network of Meanings. In the first semester, environments organized in semi-open areas connected to closed spaces were more frequently used. Whereas mainly in the second semester, given walking onset and greater motor resourcefulness, the going and appropriation of green areas unfolded as a gradual process not short of struggles. Substantial planning, projects and educational situations put forward by multiple social actors within a multidisciplinary approach modulated alternation of spaces and facilitated exchanges with peers, older children and adults – including family members.

Full textAbstract:
The introduction sets out the central concern of this book: in a liberal regime, what is required to bring children from dependence to freedom? Children are not immediately capable of freedom or even of consent to government, so liberalism must always find some way to account for the authority that must be exercised over them until they are. The dominant contemporary approach has been one of “congruence”: modeling the family and school on the authority structure of the liberal state to allow children to practice liberty and equality in these protected settings to prepare them for their civic roles as adults. However, congruence was originally the aim of absolutists like Bodin, Hobbes, and Filmer, while early liberals like Locke and Rousseau rejected it as tyrannical. What was the reason for their rejection? Understanding where contemporary liberalism falls short requires returning to this early modern debate over education and authority.

Full textAbstract:
The issue of gender disparity regarding women's participation in the labor force has generally been lower than that of men all around the world. While the rates of labor force participation have been on the rise for many Western European countries due to their longstanding policies, the rates remain lower, with a much slower increase, in the Europe and Central Asia region, which Turkey is considered to be a part of, according to the regional categorization of the World Bank. The issues of institutional and socio-cultural dynamics need to be taken into consideration to explain the comparatively lower female labor force participation rate (LFPR) in the ECA Region, including Turkey, which, in fact, falls behind the ECA countries. Drawing on available data pertaining to women's LFPR, this chapter aims to provide integrated institutional and socio-cultural explanations regarding women's access to education, family policies, participation in unpaid work, and child care.

Full textAbstract:
The impact of the instructional real-world community engagement upon the learner's cognitive understanding and subject matter attainment is recognized as a viable and integrally important element within the learner's instructional process. The integration of an active instructional engagement at the real-world community engagement level supports recognition of academic communities of engagement, personal communities of engagement, and professional communities of engagement. The academic community of engagement includes current course colleagues, prior course collegial support systems, and current and prior instructors. Within personal communities of engagement falls friends, family, and social connections. Within professional communities of engagement falls current work colleagues, prior work collegial support systems, and professional organization colleagues.

Full textAbstract:
David Bradshaw considers Virginia Woolf’s relationship to her cousin Herbert Fisher, at the centre of ‘that great patriarchal machine’ of government and education. Arguing for the need for a more nuanced understanding of Fisher in Woolf studies, Bradshaw demonstrates that Woolf’s often scathing rejection of Fisher’s conservative ideology and late-Victorian Oxford intellectualism misrepresents his political and educational ideals, his strong dislike of war as well as his advocacy for a better state-funded education system. Her well-documented hostility is also accompanied by intimacy and admiration. Bradshaw therefore argues that Woolf’s complex response to Fisher has to be understood in a family context: they were connected by a shared sense of responsibility for their family heritage and he represented the world of her parents to her.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter outlines the benefits and challenges experienced by two students who had completed an online doctoral programme at a popular United Kingdom university. Benefits include accessing courses from anywhere in the world, engaging in synchronous and asynchronous communication, and the development of creative thinking and reflective skills. The most important benefit was the fact that the online programme allowed the students to fulfill the dream of achieving a doctoral degree in teacher education while maintain family and work commitments. Some challenges of online learning include feelings of isolation, balancing family commitment with study, managing time, and coping with additional workload brought on by course requirements. The conclusion was made that the online environment is an excellent way of placing students at the centre of the learning experience, allowing them to have total control of their time and the process of learning. This, however, required an alteration in their thinking and a willingness to change certain attitudes about learning.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter presents historical overviews of in-home childcare in Australia, the UK and Canada. It discusses the policy trajectories across these countries within the context of early childhood education and care policy and migration policy. Particular attention is given to debates about how childcare policies and funding positioned home-based care arrangements – in both the caregiver and child’s home – across the public, private, informal and formal domains. In all three countries similar debates took place regarding the role of care versus education across the public and private, and formal and informal spheres. Dominant ideas about the care of young children being the responsibility of the family hindered the success of advocacy efforts, particularly by the feminist movement, for regulated, centre-based early childhood education and care. However, by looking at the details of the debates, pressures and actors through the lens of in-home childcare, contrasting attitudes are revealed.

Full textAbstract:
This paper is a small-scale research study done by the author. It seeks to find the perceptions of students attending an alternative learning centre,with an emphasis on vocational education, with regards to their learning. This study is situated on the island of Malta and the five students interviewed currently attend this school, which opened in 2014, and is the only one of its kind on the island. The main results obtained are that, on the whole, the students are happy to attend this school. They drew comparisons between their school life in the previous four years of secondary education in the mainstream college and in the alternative learning centre. They enjoyed the lessons because they were learning the subjects that they wanted to learn, they enjoyed the small class size,and the individual attention. They felt part of a big family and appreciated the fact that the teachers genuinely cared for them. They also mentioned things that should be improved, like more resources for the classrooms and a major renovation of the school building. The conclusion drawn here is that while the students are happy, care must be taken so that the concerns raised are addressed.
