The foundation of a nation's education system is built within the classrooms of quality primary and secondary schools. As we know, education is the backbone of a nation. This preparation starts from these institutions. In Bangladesh, admission tests were once the standard for evaluating merit. Howe
There is a statistic circulating in boardrooms and policy circles that deserves far more attention than it is getting. Women are nearly three times as likely as men to have their jobs automated by AI, according to a recent United Nations report. Read that carefully. Three times. And buried inside t
