Neerja Singh invites educators to look ahead to 2030 and ask the difficult but essential questions: Are we preparing students for the world they will inherit? Are we bridging the right knowledge gaps to help them not just survive, but thrive?

Drawing on UNESCO’s report, “Reimagining our futures together: a new social contract for education”, Neerja writes about how education must focus on a social commitment: one that repairs past injustices and builds a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world.

Neerja reminds us that while technology is reshaping education faster than ever, inclusion must remain central.

Tulika Verma challenges one of the most fundamental questions in education today: If agency is so central to being human, why have we built an education system that takes it away?

She reflects on how colonial legacies have turned classrooms into spaces that value compliance over curiosity, competition over collaboration, and employability over true learning.

Tulika calls for a reimagining of our system, one that sees educators and learners not as resources to be optimized, but as humans capable of creativity, connection, and change.

Kalpana Sharma asks whether school competitions are truly for students or for the school’s brochure. Through stories from classrooms and cultural exchanges, she highlights the inequalities, pressures, and misplaced priorities that often define competitive spaces.

From government school students lacking access to training and resources, to the emotional toll that winning (or losing) takes on young minds, Kalpana’s reflections reiterate that learning shouldn’t be a race.

Her experience at a cultural exchange in Varanasi was a turning point. Watching Japanese students collaborate without ego showed her a new model of learning, one that celebrates teamwork and encourages children to grow together.

Usha Rani Ravela explores the power of storytelling in shaping young minds. For her, storytelling isn’t just about narrating events; it’s an immersive experience that helps children connect, imagine, and retain concepts for the long run.

Through techniques like role play, sequencing, and story mapping, she observed that stories could transform classrooms into spaces of imagination and deep engagement.

Embracing diverse perspectives and encouraging expression can enable educators to help children learn in ways that stay with them forever, she adds.

The teaching profession is built on patience and faith. Faith that one day, long after the class is dismissed and the grades are given, something you said or did will change a student’s perception

Our editor Usha Raman writes about delayed gratification in teaching, how it doesn’t come with immediate applause, but arrives years later.

“It’s rare that we even hear directly about whether and how we have impacted learning. But when we do, the warmth of satisfaction is palpable,” she adds.

In their article, Tvara Srivastava and Disha Shrivastava explore how servant and visible leadership place students at the heart of education.

Sunita Lad Bhamray reminds us that storybooks are much more than bedtime companions. They are gateways to imagination, empathy, and lifelong learning.

Through stories, children discover qualities like courage, kindness, and creativity. They learn to see the world through different eyes, to dream bigger, and to make sense of emotions they can’t yet name.

But in an age where screens dominate attention, these quiet, magical worlds are fading from people’s imagination.

Sunita shares five ways in which fiction books can impact a child’s development.
