Hello, all! So I need some help. I want to write an opinion piece on inequities in education and how getting Nigerian out-of-school children to school does not lead to a sudden achievement of the sustainable development goals 4. I need some diverse perspectives so if you have a suggestion, kindly share. I would also love to have a conversation with you if you are passionate about education reform to hear your perspectives that can help me write a piece that is reflective of diverse perspectives. If you are studying sociology, please reach out too. I need sociological perspectives on this subject.

Thanks for the response to my note on our Student Magazines. Here's something that A-level Sociology students are reading about this month (link to PDF version): https://lnkd.in/erRCqiMb

The changes ushered in by the NCERT(National Council for Educational Research and Training) in its history, sociology, and political science textbooks for classes VI–XII are disappointing. Rather than address knowledge-related imperatives and ensure revision of learning material should be par for the course in a robust education system, revisions reflect the anxiety of BJP rulers at the center of fraught political moments in the country's recent history. The removal of references to the demolition of Babri Masjid is a case in point. Changes described as "minor editing such as deletion of reference to poverty and powerlessness of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe communities and removal of a sentence linking big dam projects to the destitution of tribal groups in the Class XII sociology textbook not only seems to tie in with a political agenda of playing up the notion of a cohesive Hindu society but also betrays an unease with argumentative engagements with developmental processes. While social sciences have always been an arena of ideological and political contestation and textbook committees have a long history of being fettered by government interventions,care must be taken to ensure an ideologically agnostic approach remains a guiding force for textbook revisions and educational reform.
