"Public education should be the means of eliminating a class system," he said, adding that the concept of model school was envisaged to enhance trust of community schools. He expressed his concern over the dominant mindset that education was a business for making profit which according to him should be eliminated.


He urged the schools not to impose study but identify students' interest first and cater education accordingly.
