In today's episode we talk about the educational thinkers who inspired Professor Sigamoney Naicker's ideas that led him to write his book ”Education and the Working Class: Is There Hope for an Inclusive Approach?”
When we stumble upon truths in life, we often see those truths repeated over and over again across time and people.
Although many great thinkers in education throughout history have influenced Professor Naicker, Pierre Bourdieu and his emphasis on the influence of power within education stands out as particularly influential.
But what happens when we add true love as a component to education, a love that involves respecting the individuality and potential of each child? It gives every child a real chance at an equitable education.
Join us today as we continue our journey exploring the impact of socioeconomic status on education and how we can move from Education to Educare!
