Sports DSA进RI,HCI制度的弊端

如果练习体育是出于兴趣，为什么不去体育专业学校? 而要挤占本来属于学习好的孩子名额。即使靠体育进了好学校，如果学业跟不上，还要有obligation去练体育，难道对孩子的身心发育就好么？我的结论是这个制度是双输。

下面是一个本地体育教练的看法。

“I have true concerns about DSA. To me, DSA has led to three outcomes.

“Firstly, primary schools have become a place where 12-year-olds are pushed in sports to achieve results to get that elusive DSA place in that top school. It is very competitive and kids burn out, they dislike sports and they hate the pressure on them. Coaches are employed to produce results instead of developing fundamental skills for future development.

“Secondly, top schools offer students DSA places to help them win national schools competitions. These students come with low aggregates and can barely cope with the academic studies. When the DSA student wants to focus more on studies, they are reminded of their DSA obligations. How do you cope in a top academic school when you are 30 points below the PSLE cut-off and are forced to train 5 times a week in sports. Think of the child and not just national schools titles.

“Thirdly, burnout. Sports becomes a vehicle to get into a top school. It is no longer played for enjoyment and health. It does not make sense. In the end, you have frustrated students who can’t keep up academically and are forced to give up their sport.

“We should seriously review DSA and ask whether it does more good or harm. Schools can state how many percent of their DSA students go on to college. But can they tell us how so many top athletes have been robbed of their sporting potential in order to keep up with their IP expectations or risk being kicked out of the school? How many sports careers have been aborted because of pressure from these DSA schools.”

我和楼主的看法有点不同。
体育专才生往往在心智和毅力上远超同龄人，而名校对他们的加持让他们能在学业上更上一层楼。这个在美国常青藤名校屡试不爽。
我要说，学业很重要，但不是全部。学校对学生的人格培养其实更重要。
体育专才生在体育方面出成绩后，又能尽量让学业更好，这其实也是对他们的考验。这种人格的培养对以后的人生更重要。

切身说法，我不支持这个政策（至少需要一些调整），更强烈不建议家长用这个把自己的孩子往名校里塞。

国初为例，２５５＋的正常分数线。但是对于ＤＳＡ成功的学生来说，只要考到１８８以上就可以进去。２个２００分左右的学生，和一班２５５５的孩子一起上课，跟不上是必然的。这些学校课程的制定和上课的进度都是按照正常录取的学生制定的，不会因为多了２个DSA的学生就做调整。就算是过去，偶尔DSA（学术相关)进来了240分左右的学生，能跟上的都极少，两三年内无奈转校的情况很多。

家长总是觉得，把自己的200分的孩子塞到250分的名校里，自己的孩子就会有250分的水平了。我很相信200分的孩子去普通的学校和其他200分的孩子一起学习为他们量身制定的课程内容的速度，才更适合。学生不需要学业十分优秀，但是完全跟不上也是不行的（就只对孩子的心智打击就是场灾难）。这好比是把一个1米5的人放到一群2米的人中间去打篮球，然后再告诉他输了没关系，即使别人骑在你头上扣篮也别在乎一样。

体育优才的学生，但是学术不行的，就应该进新加坡专门成立的那个体育学校。如果家长不希望自己的孩子以体育为生还是希望自己的孩子在学业上拼一下，也该找个适合自己的学校。
