Synopsis

'Essential reading for parents, teachers and policy-makers' - Jo Johnson

The world of education is in a state of failure. Our teachers are quitting in droves, their natural passion for education stifled. Your children are being let down by a system unfit for our rapidly-changing world, leaving them wholly-unprepared to survive the age of automation.

Pulling no punches, education technologist and entrepreneur Priya Lakhani outlines how badly we have failed, and who is to blame - while charting a course for a brighter future. From feeble government reforms to growing mental health crises, Priya leaves no stone unturned in exposing the Inadequate state of education.
