Description
School - No Place For Children A Wake-Up Call The modern schooling system has a profound impact on pupils and teachers alike, often leading to demoralisation, disillusion, and damage to self-belief and individuality. This book offers a stark wake-up call, exploring the toxic effects of the system and highlighting child-friendly alternatives that could revolutionise the way we educate our children. The author draws on their own experiences as both pupil and teacher, as well as testimonies from current and former pupils and teachers, to reveal the havoc caused by the system and investigate the possible agenda behind its dysfunction. With a focus on the short-term and long-term damage caused to children, this book is a timely and thought-provoking examination of the education system.
