From outdated curricula and rote learning to stark inequalities in access and quality, Shahid Siddiqui exposes how education perpetuates social divides rather than bridging them. He calls for a transformative shift towards critical thinking, creativity, and equity to meet the demands of the 21st century. This urgent and insightful work is a call to action for policymakers, educators, and society to reclaim education as a tool for justice and progress.
