Education showcases the impact of strong leadership. Schools must be academic powerhouses that emphasize discipline, inclusivity, and a focus on education above all else, embracing a diverse student body while prioritizing unity and academic excellence. Effective leadership in education can transcend cultural and religious boundaries, promoting a shared sense of purpose and success. Most importantly, schools cannot be and should not be places of worship.
