The Nepali text and its English translation describe a meeting of private school principals in Lalitpur, Nepal, where excessive government regulations and new mandates, such as stricter Grade 8 exams and increased fees, were the primary focus. This overregulation, the author argues, stifles innovation and creativity in teaching, harming students by prioritizing compliance over meaningful learning experiences. The stark difference in Secondary Education Examination pass rates between public and private schools highlights existing inequalities that these new mandates may exacerbate rather than solve. The author advocates for reducing bureaucratic burdens, granting schools more autonomy, and trusting teachers to adapt teaching methods to their specific contexts.
