Perlu ada rancangan khusus untuk
sekolah kecil kerana keadaannya
tidak sama. Perlu ada dasar tertentu
bagi menangani sekolah yang tidak
mencapai standard. Sekolah Kluster
kebanyakannya terletak dalam bandar
dan bersedia untuk mencapai standard
antarabangsa. Langkah ini memajukan
sekolah yang sudah maju. Sekolah
yang tidak maju (yang bukan Sekolah
Kluster), tidak dimajukan. Di mana
keutamaan kita?

Maka, perlu ada dasar-dasar tertentu
bagi memajukan sekolah yang tidak
mencapai standard kebangsaan. Guru
yang terbaik harus mengajar di sekolah
rendah. Sekolah rendah permulaannya
tidak sama. Ada yang maju, ada yang
untuk menggerakkannya. Sebagai contoh, peperiksaan tidak. Bukan kerana kepimpinan atau perguruan tetapi
UPSR. Keputusan 5A dianggap terbaik. 3A dianggap
masyarakatnya yang tidak maju. Jika satu ukuran sahaja
sederhana. Sekiranya 50% ke atas murid mendapat 3A, gunakan untuk semua, pencapaian standard yang
sekolah itu dianggap mencapai standard. Jika di bawah seragam menjadi sukar kerana latar belakang masyarakat
50%, ia dianggap mencapai substandard. Kajian perlu
yang berbeza. Capai dahulu standard kebangsaan barulah
dilakukan terhadap bilangan murid dan keadaan sekolah standard antarabangsa akan datang sendiri seperti yang
bagi mendapatkan gambaran sebenar.
berlaku pada Korea Selatan.
