Warts and All

Definition: including features or qualities that are not appealing or attractive

Sentence example: The revamped social studies syllabus helps students be better informed about present-day tensions and multiple perspective on these issues. It is also better to engage students about controversial issues in the classroom discussions instead of the free-for-all in the online space.  This reflects a confidence that trusts teachers to facilitate their discussions and allows students to see the whole picture, warts and all.  Educators were told by the MOE that there are no right or wrong answers. Answers which differ from the Government’s stance could also get good score, but they must not be discriminatory or defame anyone.

The Power Memory Strategy:

  1. Link to wart, i.e. a small, hard, benign growth on the skin, caused by a virus ⇒ ugly; unappealing; unattractive
