A Plain

A Plain PROFESSION AND EDUCATION MAGAZINE Our mission is to grow excellence for growth. All round growth. We are not here for the usual news reporting. All-round growth.

THOSE WHO EXCEL OFFER SOLUTIONS.

'A Plain' is a registered education & professions magazine. Our mission is telling excellence stories for growth. We are keen on excellence stories that go beyond school subject or university course stellar performance. We go past the usual news reporting to package stories of impact at school and after graduation from youth polytechnics or university.

'A Plain'

is here to tell everyone about the power of education, those who are excelling and how they are making the world better. This publication is keen on education, professions, and skills of people from kindergarten to university. Because, we believe, only God and A-Plain performance, not rosy subject grades, can create. Reading 'A Plain' should, therefore, remind everyone to take part in the difficult job of delivering growth that can be felt. It feels great being an A-student, yes, but the challenge lies in leading an A-Plain life. Taking care of your world. Your neighbour’s. And the globe, which is eerily desperate for people who can turn the school scores into solving problems. The solutions come in many forms, including care, technology, design, clear communication, mentorship, selflessness, completeness, independence of thought, respect, encouragement, order, and jobs.

The founder of ‘A Plain’ is a journalist of many years as a reporter and editor who has scanned the environment and concluded that the problem lies in education. The step of producing this publication is the founder’s contribution to making the globe more livable. Let’s read. Let’s engage.
