A Communal Cure: How to Heal Our Educational System’s Sickness, Volume 1 is a nonfiction book of 11 chapters, organized in two parts. In the first part, the author makes a diagnosis of the problems that undermine the educational system worldwide. These problems include the shortage of teachers, the teaching method, violence in schools, how students with disabilities and gifted and talented students are taught, poverty, the growing mental issues among students, teachers, and parents, and the impact on education of the COVID-19 pandemic, to name a few.

The safeguarding and child protection challenges in education have never been more complex, nor the legal duties on schools and colleges more stringent. The criminal and sexual exploitation of children, FGM, radicalization, and online safety are sadly all now part of the remit, as are self-harm and mental health issues. And these safeguarding challenges are found not only in urban communities but also in leafy suburbs and rural idylls throughout.
