If you are reading this book, chances are you do. Education allows us to learn about the world, develop new skills and fulfill our dreams for the future. But school can be dramatically different for children depending on things like where they live, how much money their families make and even what they look like.

Grab your tablet for a day at school in Ancient Rome. Take a class in a 19th-century one-room schoolhouse in the United States. Discover how nature schools and Indigenous land-based education work. Find out how technology and artificial intelligence (AI) is changing curriculums and how teachers, librarians and students are fighting book bans in schools. Time for School explores who learns, what we learn, where we learn, when we learn and how we learn in the past, present and into the future.

The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.
