War vs Peace

 Let's imagine a school where war and peace are represented in the daily life of students and teachers.

War:

Conflict: Students are always engaged in wrangles and fights with other students hence leading to disruption of classes. It is such a feeling of confusion and clamor.

Divisions: There are formations of cliques in schools and students are grouped to a class that does not acknowledge the presence of the other. People surrender to bullying and the level of cooperation among people is low.

Stress: Most of the arguments that teachers deal with are related to discipline, and keeping learners in line consumes most of their time instead of teaching. Learning gives way to the all-important proposition of maintaining discipline.

Destruction: Tangible and intangible items are often destroyed, while the surrounding of the school seems aggressive. Learning materials are used inefficiently, and the pretended school climate is affected.

Peace:

Harmony: Students perform the tasks with the cooperation of each other, or giving a helping hand to each other. School environment particularly classrooms are orderly and have qualities that support learning.

Unity: There are also those activities which enable students with disabilities together with other normal students to interact hence developing friendship. Actually, there are very few cases of bullying, and each student does not experience any fear for his or her safety.

Focus: The administrative workload is shifted leaving teachers free to teach, prepare good lessons/provide good teaching experiences and make students embrace learning. It brings out teamwork in the achievement of the education objectives.

Growth: The school climate is progressive and all stakeholders through their inputs strive to have a progressive school. Resources are utilized optimally and the school community corresponds.

In this analogy, "war" represents a hostile and unproductive school environment, while "peace" symbolizes a supportive and flourishing educational setting.
