It
is likely that someone who is original and
intelligent does not do very well at school. Such a learner should
not be called a failure as everyone has his or her own strengths and
weaknesses. Those who are academically brilliant do well in other
fields. Hafeez Contractor was not a very good student. However, he

which may or may not be visible in the academic report. That is why
students should be encouraged to showcase their talents, and work on
them. They should not be called failures.
