Should schools offer cash bonuses for good test scores?

[Remaine 4,687]

Title.

[Klankill804 753]

I should ask this to my Principal  :rolleyes:. 

[SlLVER 12]

Not at all.

The reason is, you get educated when you get a good grade, school served you already, no need for cash.

[ATHENA123 56]

Is 89-100% good? If yes I would be rich! :lol:

[SonofDeath 512]

Stupid.

More taxpayer money going to waste

[bluesky12345678 20]

Get a scholarship

[Joshua16 780]

No you shouldnt have to be bribed to get good marks

[Aero.v2.0 1,456]

Not a chance.

[Papitoi 294]

Yes, but not much...

[Ilia.ArchangeI 6,785]

Of course not, the School is doing you a favor (or service) by educating you and assessing your knowledge to insure your progress. Why would they pay you on top of that?

[Irontank1v 836]

Offering cash bonus to encourage students to work hard or show more interest. In that case no. This is because students will try to study not to gain knowledge but will only study to get the cash bonus. This type of mind set can be bad for children. We still see similar mind set when it comes to grades/marks. What i have seen is that students study just to get an 'A' doesn't matter if he/she is learning anything useful.

No! You should appreciate the education you are getting, as it will help you progress in life and get a job one day.

[GoldRock2 290]

Erm... no...

 

Let's remind ourselves that many of us are privileged enough to have access to a good education system, and that education is both a right and a privilege.

We got 5€ when we have from every subject 1 (A+) or win some competition :) I got 15€ ^_^ 

[r_Firingsniper0 1,215]

We're lucky enough to receive education

 

Look at the poor kids in Africa

 

It would be ridiculous if you receive money for education

 

It's the opposite, some schools you need to pay money for education.

[HirunMeepage 763]

That would be awesome! Would buy crystals then....  ^_^

[MisterGeneral 692]

IMO, no. 

[Who_Boss 154]

no theres a lot of reason and 1 of them is students might spend the money on bad things such as cigarate. 

[hakkeritipu 56]

If it would be like that i would be rich

[canadarules 1,938]

Yes,

They would get lunch at least once in a while if they don't make it

[Mr.71 123]

nope i work hard for my money, I have no trouble paying out for education, NHS etc even though I don't use any of these things and pay more tax then alot of people, but I would not be happy with my tax money paying for children to get good results.

 

Children do get rewards for good results (i.e the feeling of achievement & gained knowledge) the rewards for good results will last you a life time, from helping you get into higher education to getting a good job.

Great I will sue for back dated moneies owed to me for all my good results then pass on how to do this to everyone who ever was in education, result schools bankrupted no education for anyone, no tax money for every country as they paying fees to old students every country goes bank rupted.. How about just no!
