1/2 = 2 !! The Great Indian Rope Trick

The Great Indian Roope Trick just made its way to Education. This morning I was reading the funniest piece I have read in a long time.

Picture this: The Government (read a Babu) wants to give a favour to a friend or a relative who is a teacher/administrator. He finds that there is no school that needs a Head or a Teacher. What does he do? He just splits the school in two. So the ABCD School is now the ABCD Boys' School and the ABCD Girls' School.

2 Schools housed in the same building. On Different floors. Each with its Own Principal.

Apparently this isn't a one-off occurrance. It happens regularly. Read all about it here

I agree with your staff. Uniforms are a must. They create a sense of camaraderie. Can you imagine a school basketball teamin different coloured t-shirts playing a team in uniform? A common motif is one of the first things Team Building coaches teach.

I dont agree with Uniforms concept as mentioned in the comment above...

Just because it is used in games does not make it applicable everywhere...

It is not uniform that creates a great team... It is great people and great team leaders who combine to make a great time..
