李总理宣布在百所中小学增派师资 帮助家庭环境欠佳的一万多名学生
补足起跑点的缺口
我们常说：授人以鱼，不如授之以渔。
这是新加坡教育体系的基本精神，但我国教育制度还有一个重要宗旨：缩小我国的贫富差距，做到每个人不论出身和家庭背景，都能有平等的机会出头。
李显龙总理今天出席一项教育协作伙伴的感谢活动上所说的一番话，提到了这个精神。
“每个社会，永远都存在一定程度的不平等，有些多有些少。因此，在不同环境成长的孩子们，人生起跑点都不一样。这是现实，我们的社会也一样。但在新加坡，我们尽最大的努力来减少这些不平等，建立一个更公平更平等的社会，阻止贫困与弱势根深蒂固地‘代代相传’。我们鼓励每一名孩子发奋图强，无论他们来自什么家庭背景。然后我们会给予那些弱势家庭各种支援来做到这点。”
总理在致辞时也宣布，政府接下来将进一步为这些家庭环境欠佳的孩子们提供更多支援。
在学校层面
在社区层面
在家庭层面
在幼儿阶段
总理希望通过上述“四管齐下”，提升起跑点落后的孩子们的机会、保障他们家庭的社会流动性（social mobility）、兑现让代代新加坡人都能生活在一个公平平等的新加坡的承诺。
总理说：
“像冠病疫情这类危机将凸显社会差异。例如，不是每名孩子都能有效地居家学习。一些孩子家中没有电脑或快速的网络设施，有的得和兄弟姐妹、家长等共用空间，因此无法专注于学习。”
“疫情之后，这些差异还会存在。虽然这不源自冠病疫情，但疫情却让差异更为明显。学生们在家中是否能得到援助或者家长的指导和辅导，将改变他们一生。”
“我们因此要继续努力扶持在弱势背景成长的孩童，尽可能补足他们起跑点的缺口，确保孩子比他们的家长有更多机会和更多途径通往成功的道路。”
红蚂蚁从身边同学的身上，见证了这种正面社会流动性。当年我们都居住在老旧住宅区，同学的父母多数是小贩和蓝领工人。但如今这些同学都成了企业执行人员或高管、公务员、医生、律师和教师等。20多年后的今天，他们家的住址早已从租赁组屋和三房式组屋，变成公寓或有地住宅。
“书中自有黄金屋”这句话，在新加坡是一个真实的写照，也是大多数人能触及并抓稳的梦。
