　　Speaking in his first National Day Rally speech on 15 August，Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said Singapore's education system was set for more reforms in the years ahead，particularly for the primary and secondary education.Read the summary of his thoughts on education below.

　　For a start，the Government is prepared to send an additional 3,000 teachers to Singapore schools，cut the courses of study even further and change the way the mother tongue，especially Chinese，is taught.But，for the changes to be successful，parents need to help.

　　Singapore has a devoted group of teachers and principals and quite a few of them are outstanding，but the Republic's schools can be even better.To help the schools make a jump in quality，the Government plans that within the next 6 years，it will send 1,000 more teachers to primary schools,1,400 to secondary schools and 550 more to junior colleges.Each school would decide how to use its extra teachers.Some may want to make classes smaller so students get more individual attentions while others may have new teachers assist more senior teachers，but the overall goal is to give teachers the time and space to come up with ways to bring out the best in their students.
