23.01.2022 The first object of teaching is to communicate such knowledge as may be useful in gaining other knowledge, to stimulate in the pupil the love of learning, and to form in him the habits of independent study. -John Milton Gregory, 1886

16.01.2022 Don’t send your children or grandchildren to left-leaning schools because if they are not yet, they will likely come home brainwashed. Conservatives must become more involved at all levels of public and private education. The National Education Association (NEA) voted to focus teacher in-service programs on white fragility rather than quality classroom educational practices. It holds monopolistic control over public education as a labor union, strongly aligned with libera...l Democrats. Most parents prefer quality teaching in math, English, reading/writing or science over K-12 leftist indoctrination. Public boards of education must be reclaimed by conservative parents. With the Covid pandemic, many parents are eschewing regular schools dominated by teachers’ unions for charter schools, homeschooling and teaching pods, less influenced by left-leaning politics. New data show that these alternatives provide a superior choice and so are under attack by the NEA. The Biden administration will double down on these attacks. See more

10.01.2022 George Clarke, a missionary who was also Civil Commissioner of the Bay of Islands, from Appendices of the Journals of the House of Representatives, 1863, E-9: schools will give the government an immense moral influence in the country such as is not attained in any other way. (Page 18).

06.01.2022 True teaching is not that which gives knowledge, but that which stimulates pupils to gain it. -John Milton Gregory, The Seven Laws of Teaching

03.01.2022 Political Issues in New Zealand Education, edited by John Codd, Richard Harker & Roy Nash, published in 1985 by Dunmore Press in Palmerston North: The attentive reader will be left in no doubt that state schooling in this country is an inherently political instrument for social and cultural reproduction which has developed a variety of modes whereby dominant social fractions exercise their power through what Gramsci called hegemony.
