Snippets: Integrity, Accountability & Transparency

The Little Girl came home yesterday and confessed that she had made a spelling error.

What bothered her was the fact that her English teacher had missed correcting her. She also speculated that perhaps Mrs. R may have been exhausted after a long day and as such, may have missed spotting her student's error.


Constructive ratification had to be done and so I brought the spelling notebook back to the teacher today to have the oversight corrected. 

Which would mean The Little Girl scores 9/10 instead of 10/10; and having to write the word "igloo" again 3 times under Correction column.

I am so proud of her integrity, conscience and honesty in taking accountability of her error. That, to us all, is the perfect 10. I pray she keeps nurturing these values within her because as a nation, we sorely need these simple virtues. InsyaAllah, be that "anak cemerlang pelapis harapan negara", my sweet.

We thank Allah swt for His Guidance.
