How to build a Great School?
The enchanting word “School” weaves its origins back to the ancient Greek word “Schole,” which intriguingly translates to “Leisure.” For the Greeks, leisure represented a cherished opportunity to ponder and engage with the world around them, absorbing knowledge through observation and reflection. They firmly believed that this “idle time” allowed one to decelerate, take a breather, and absorb the wonder and wisdom of their surroundings. This intimate relationship between leisure and the pursuit of knowledge eventually evolved into the creation of “places of learning” or the contemporary “schools” we know today. Some experts argue that the Greeks placed considerable value on “self-learning” and “peer learning” in their educational paradigms.
