Welcome Paradigm Breakers- Tell us about yourself!
If you're here, you're probably tired of the traditional system and are ready to question what everyone else takes for granted. This is where we build the coalition of educators who refuse to accept "that's just how education works." Let's start with introductions that matter: Your Education Origin Story Tell us: - What moment made you realize something fundamental was wrong with traditional education? - When did you first catch a glimpse of what education could be when it truly serves human development? - What unspoken norm in education drives you absolutely crazy? - What transformation are you hoping to create in your classroom, school, or community? What I hope this community becomes: A coalition of paradigm breakers who co-create the tools, frameworks, and courage needed to prove that transformational education isn't just possible—it's inevitable when enough of us work together. Drop your story below! We're not just chatting online- we're building a movement. And every movement starts with brave individuals willing to share their truth and vision for something better. Let's revolutionize education together! Feel free to add new topics, ask questions, share resources, celebrations, and areas for growth. This is OUR platform for the dialogues that will break the paradigm!

Hi everyone There were several inflection points, but the one I’d consider the most significant is when I recognized that educational saviourism is fundamentally the same as the colonial saviourism imposed on countries like Sri Lanka (where I am from) And the unspoken norm I’d highlight is that of teachers being saviours. A system of education built on the premise that “educators know best” will necessarily lead to compromising the human dignity of students. The transformation I’d like to see is education being in alignment with human rights - the presently mainstreamed* system of education was not built in a culture that recognized human rights; in fact it was designed to violate what we now consider human rights. *I prefer “presently mainstreamed” rather than “traditional”, because there were many traditional educational practices that were less coercive that are erased when we refer to one rather recent system as “traditional”.
