As Defending Education notes, “not a single...

And I felt lucky to be part of such a vibrant learning community. That all changed in 2014. A young dean, fresh from an education conference hosted by the National Association of Independent Schools, led the faculty in what we now...

According to the latest estimates, a shocking 17 percent of students in government schools will be victims of some sort of sexual abuse at the hands of teachers and faculty.
