  “First, we have to gradually reduce the emphasis on examinations, and focus on a holistic education. Second, we have to give our students more choice in their studies, so that they can shape and enjoy their learning. Third, we have to do all we can to support our teachers, so as to help them bring quality and innovative practices into the classroom and school.”
