Katharine runs one of the strictest schools in the UK, for mostly disadvantaged students from immigrant families, and gets some of the best results in the country. Her solution to the failure of modern schooling isn’t about funding, racial politics, or experimenting with radical teaching methods. It's discipline, structure, and a return to the values our grandparents understood instinctively. We get into: Why shame, done right, is essential to raising well behaved kids How gentle parenting and white guilt are burning down Western civilization Why the left refuses to try proven solutions in education The consequences of failing to teach our true history Why AI can never replace the relationship a great teacher builds with a child Her case for government intervention regarding social media and smartphones The vision behind Strictly Education and why she wanted to team up with Dad Saves America Subscribe and ring the notification bell so you don’t miss a single video!
