I've officially stopped expecting work to get better. Now I just clock in, accept the chaos and try to make it through the day with my sanity intact👍

There’s some really dangerous and reckless driving happening on our roads.

[Rum & Reason @PropsPV]

Dear @JamaicaConstab @darylvazmp and any other person/agency responsible, taxi operators NEED to be reined in!!! The total and utter disregard for traffic laws they demonstrate is honestly sickening. The chaos they create on our roads is downright detrimental to our society.

Exactly 10 years ago today, Elaine Thompson-Herah won her first Olympic title. 🇯🇲

She has since gone on to win five Olympic golds, becoming the first woman ever to successfully defend both the Olympic 100m and 200m titles at consecutive Games.

Swipe to relive the magic. 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇

NOT A HOT TAKE: I would rather see a flyer made in Paint on a Dell computer from 2006 than a ChatGPT Ai flyer.

Can you imagine how much more authentic a version of yourself you could be, if you didn't give a fuck what people thought about you or anything else? You can just do you and focus on that.

Disgusting behaviour by the Argentinians at the end, especially Paredes.
Just a bunch of nasty violent thugs, and a disgrace to football. Never been so happy to see a team lose.

The #Jamaica Education Gender Gap: No Single Cause, No Simple Fix

(Photo: Martei Korley)

The performance gap is pervasive and measurable at every level. Girls consistently outperform boys from the Primary Exit Profile (PEP) examination onward, through CSEC at the secondary level, where the dropout rate is also higher for boys, and the gap is most dramatically visible at the tertiary level.

Nearly seven in ten students enrolled in Jamaican universities and other higher education institutions are women. Among female students who completed the primary exit exam, 73% went on to complete at least one CSEC subject, compared to just 53% of boys, and the gap at the CAPE (sixth form) level is even starker: 16.9% of girls versus 9% of boys.

The causes are layered and mutually reinforcing.

[Rum & Reason @PropsPV]

Having had the opportunity to teach a 3rd grade class, I have seen this first hand. The boys' interest in learning was nil until I, as a male teacher, actively encouraged their participation in class.
Also, 90% of them did not have their fathers active in their lives.

4. The feminisation of the teaching profession

UWI professor Errol Miller, who coined the term “male marginalisation” in Caribbean education, documented the changing demographics of the Caribbean teaching population, shifting from predominantly male to predominantly female. Qualitative observations suggest boys may be less engaged academically when taught predominantly by female teachers, and this is correlated with poor academic achievement. The near-absence of male role models in schools, particularly at the primary level, means many boys have no proximate model of male academic engagement.
