Inner city education must change. Our responsibility is not merely to provide access to knowledge; we must produce educated people.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
For the 95 per cent whose only means of schooling is the district or the city school, we must provide what we are not now providing, an education that will better fit them for the struggle of life.
People believe in the power of education to change lives.
Education enables people and societies to be what they can be.
Until we're educating every kid in a fantastic way, until every inner city is cleaned up, there is no shortage of things to do.
It is the local community that needs to own the commitment to education.
Be it a village or a city, education is very important, and it always comes into you.
I think education is both using and improving knowledge and that changes the whole picture.
Education is not a tool for development - individual, community and the nation. It is the foundation for our future. It is empowerment to make choices and emboldens the youth to chase their dreams.
Public education is an investment in our future.
Listen, if the mayor wants to have a debate about education in this city, I got three words: bring it on.
