In this episode of The Edgehog Podcast, we dive deep into the pressing issues and potential transformations within the education system. We discuss a spectrum of topics, from the rise in homeschooling to the critical role schools play not just in teaching, but in shaping societal norms and values. Central to our conversation is the paramount importance of fostering genuine human connections and crafting a cooperative relationship between parents and educators.

We address the hot-button issue of the politicization of education and its profound impact on our children, advocating for a shift back to focusing on the children’s well-being and developmental needs. 

Eszter Salamon joins the dialogue, bringing to light the crucial role of parental involvement in educational decisions and advocating for the rights of the child. We cover sensitive subjects including gender and transsexuality education, emphasizing the necessity of trauma-informed practices in a post-pandemic world.

Tune in to explore how our education systems can adapt to better meet the diverse needs of students and inspire a lifelong love for learning.
