Published on December 8, 2019, Sunny Bindra's new book, The Bigger Deal, paints a stark picture of the education system in Kenya.
The author likens the system to a train journey where students are forced to conform and obey, with little room for creativity or questioning.
According to Bindra, students are treated like passengers on a train, with their every move dictated by the teachers and the system.
They are forced to study a set curriculum, with little choice in their subjects or teachers, and are expected to conform to the rules and regulations of the system.
The author argues that this approach stifles creativity and innovation, and that students are not encouraged to think outside the box or question the status quo.
Bindra's book is a scathing critique of the education system, and it is likely to spark a lot of debate and discussion among educators, policymakers, and parents.
