International schools claim to champion Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice (DEIJ), but are these policies a dangerous sham? In this episode of The Education Outsider, 20-year education veteran Joshua Durey exposes the hypocrisy he witnessed firsthand inside an exclusive international school in South Korea.
Discover how well-intentioned "diversity" initiatives led to absurd new rules, like banning the words "boy" and "girl," and created a hostile environment where a new kind of prejudice thrived. Durey reveals the shocking truth about how hiring "diverse" but inexperienced teachers hurt students, how 8-year-olds were irresponsibly questioned about their sexuality, and how policies designed to be "inclusive" actually alienated and marginalized minority students even further.
This is not a balanced report; it's an unfiltered look at the damage caused by the educational establishment's obsession with DEIJ, and a call to action for parents and teachers who know the system is broken.
