#59 What Is School For? Catherine’s Journey From Inspired Teacher to Education Questioner
Manage episode 389945154 series 3131043
When Catherine was five years old, I would watch her teaching imaginary students in our backyard. Even then, it was clear she was meant to be a teacher. Two decades later, she found herself standing in front of a real classroom of thirty eager faces—living the dream she’d always had.
But as she moved deeper into the education system, Catherine began to feel a growing sense of disillusionment. The gap between what she believed education could be and what she saw in practice led her to question the very purpose of school itself.
In this episode, Catherine shares her honest reflections on teaching, the pressures inside modern classrooms, and why she now asks the powerful question: What is school for?
A thoughtful discussion for anyone interested in education reform, teaching, and the future of learning.
