School is no longer a place for delivering knowledge where children are mere consumers of knowledge. Rather it is a platform for transformation.

Comment on this statement.
Deteriorated noble process teachers are gurus
Knowledge market knowledge is just one identifying oneself
Must transform all round growth grooms into someone

There is growing concern on the quality of schooling these days. I understand that this concern is genuine, and unfortunately schools are becoming supermarkets of knowledge where what happens is not transformation of students but just transportation of information.

Looking at the statement, I find it right to say that educating children is a noble process. In this process, there are several factors. Among those factors, imparting knowledge is just one. But there are innumerable other elements that make what masters of olden times used to call it, transformation or metamorphosis. This is a holistic process involving reaching, guiding, fostering, strengthening, identifying, internalizing, and so goes the list. An education that does not enable this teacher-assisted transformation is an incomplete education in many counts.

Unfortunately, today, what is happening is the other way round. Instead of grooming students into civilized human beings, they are made to be just vehicles that carry information from centres of learning to job markets. Here everything is taken in terms of money. As a result, the very purpose of education gets aborted, and children become pawns in the hands of market forces. This is deteriorating and discouraging at the same time. Teachers are no more gurus. Teaching is no longer a calling, rather it is an occupation like any other.

In short, there needs to be immediate corrective measures to bring back the old glory of teacher-assisted transformation schooling. School should never cease to be markets of knowledge; students consumers. Schools are temples of wisdom. They have to be so.
