LEARNING & GROWNING
Children are born curious, creative, and endlessly capable of learning. Long before schools, classrooms, and curricula existed, humans developed through exploration, play, and hands-on experience. Every child has a natural drive to understand the world, ask questions, solve problems, and discover their own unique talents.
Unfortunately, traditional schooling often interrupts this natural process. By imposing rigid schedules, standardized testing, and uniform expectations, forced education can stifle curiosity, creativity, and the intrinsic love of learning that every child possesses. When we prioritize control over growth, we risk not only limiting individual potential but also shaping a society that undervalues independent thought and innovation.
At the Liberation of Education, we believe children thrive when they are free to learn on their own terms—when their natural curiosity is nurtured, their interests are respected, and their individual paths are honored. Childhood is not a race or a set of hoops to jump through; it is a vital period for exploration, discovery, and growth. By understanding how children are naturally designed to learn, we can create environments and opportunities that allow them—and society as a whole—to flourish.
EDUCATION VS SCHOOL
Education is the natural process of learning, growing, and evolving as an individual. It is about curiosity, exploration, critical thinking, and understanding the world in a meaningful way. Education is not just the acquisition of facts—it is about learning how to think, how to question, and how to take responsibility for your own growth. True education also involves unlearning: questioning assumptions, shedding outdated beliefs, and freeing the mind from inherited limitations. It empowers individuals to think independently, pursue their passions, and contribute creatively to society.
School, on the other hand, is a formalized system designed to standardize learning. Its primary goal is not the growth of the individual but the production of obedient, predictable, and manageable citizens. Schools often prioritize rote memorization, conformity, and adherence to authority over curiosity, critical thinking, and self-directed learning. In this sense, school can function as indoctrination: teaching children what to think and accept rather than how to think for themselves.
Education nurtures innovation, problem-solving, and human potential, school often suppresses individuality and curiosity. By valuing standardized testing, rigid schedules, and uniformity, schools can inadvertently stifle creativity, discourage independent thought, and erode the natural drive to learn. The consequences are not only personal but societal: a society raised primarily to obey rather than think critically risks stagnation, a lack of innovation, and diminished capacity for meaningful change.
