She stated, “From an early age, every student should be taught how to protect themselves, provide basic medical help, and respond effectively during emergencies like fires or earthquakes.”
“আপনার ব্র্যান্ডের ডিজিটাল পরিচয় শুরু হোক আজই – Storola-এর সাথে।”
Meghla also criticized the current focus on non-essential extracurriculars, noting, “Developed nations progress because they prioritize life-skill education. We, too, must move beyond teaching only dance, music, and cooking to equip our youth with practical skills that truly empower them.”
Her post has sparked widespread appreciation among students, educators, and parents who believe that integrating life-skill and technical education could transform the future of Bangladesh’s education system.
