Your post on “Trapped: How Schools are Failing Students and Society” highlights a critical issue that resonates with many educators, parents, and students. It’s concerning to see how educational systems sometimes prioritize standardized testing over holistic learning experiences, leaving students unprepared for real-world challenges.
Many schools struggle with inadequate resources, outdated curriculums, and a one-size-fits-all approach to education that fails to cater to diverse learning styles.
