The education system isn't failing. It's succeeding, at exactly what it was built to do: produce compliance, not confidence.

The Lie We Call School pulls that design out into the open, and lays out what a different approach looks like. Drawing on over twenty years in UK and US classrooms and school leadership, it introduces Cultural Esteem and the Seven New Core Skills as a practical alternative to a system built around obedience.

This is the first book in a planned seven-part series, and the starting point for a different conversation about what education could be.
