A compelling read that reminds us of the urgent need to dechiffre how the private education sector subtly manipulates teachers into internalising blame for systemic failures they did not create! Kudos to authors for giving voice a prevalent tension experienced in many private K-12 schools 👏🏻👏🏽👏🏿

The breaking news circilating in international media reminded me of Huxley's letter below—almost as if a generation has finally been awakening from that "narco-hypnosis" he so astutely warned Orwell about 👇🏽

An exciting new research by my grad student explores these reciprocal relationship dynamics 👇🏽
