Itie schools wtiose numlDers permit ttie arrangement are
lividel into two grades, Kindergarden and iUlementary,
"but in tde larger schools there are in some cases as many
as six classes, whicn is far more than is really required.
Several of the schools require re-grading hut if this were
done many of the parents would remove their children as
they invariably resent any alteration in the class in whicto
their hoys are working, unless it is a move foiward.Th©
difficulties over schools and education in Bahrain are
increased by the fact that parents separately invariably
act in accordance to the wishes of their youthful sons and
when spoken to on any subject they reply that they do not
like to force their children to do anything that does not
please the children* Parental authority seems to be practi
cally non-existent*
