Schools are meant to be neutral spaces where education remains secular and inclusive for all children, regardless of their background. It is deeply concerning to hear about Hindi alphabet charts being distributed in a convent school that replace standard associations with specific religious references like 'Kaba', 'Masjid', and 'Namaz'. Educational guidelines are very clear that no specific religious symbols or faith teachings should be part of the curriculum in general schools. Whether it was an 'inadvertent mistake' or a sourcing error, this oversight is unacceptable. We need to ensure that the foundational learning of our kids is not used as a tool for religious messaging. The administration must be vigilant. Education should focus on universal values and academic excellence, not sectarian religious associations that could alienate students or communal divide. #education #secularism #governance https://thoxt.com/l/JaW4B8 🔗
