context.
what should a school do? who will teach in this school? curriculum? what should be the pedagogy? what should be taught? how will
this school communicate?
what programs should be facilitated?
what are the spatial manifestations of this curriculum?
Education in many ways is being enacted as a powerful tool for social transformation and emancipation. Today education is a fundamental right of every citizen under the Indian constitution. But, is education
always transformative and emancipatory? Or does it lead us to think and act in a systematic and symmetric way?
An analysis of the history of education might show us a completely different picture of its purpose and politics. Yet, the sanctity and sacredness of education remains unquestioned by various scholars,
so called experts and subsequent governments.
a crippling example would be, how the indian schooling system is functioning during this pandemic? and how is this affecting education for the tribals and other communities in the rural parts of India.
