Yesterday I had the parent meeting and I was glad that my son did it well in school. His ranking is above the average a lot.
Today the ranking seems to be banned because it will hurt students' feelings. But I think it is OK. After all, these rankings are in private. The teachers, parents and the students themselves know it. If the students don't talk about it, they will not know each other's ranking.
It is more meaningful to see the ranking than the scores. Such as I don't think my son's English scores are very high, however, his ranking is high. That means to say the exam is difficult for everybody. So you can't judge it bad or good according to the scores. But the ranking will tell you everything. So I will know more about my son's study and know which part he shall study harder.

Ranking is good as those children who are studying hard will get motivated. But children should also realize that ranking is not everything. Good manners and respect should be considered.
