This conversation centers on the quiet but profound erosion of curiosity within modern schooling systems. Steve Cochrane, Executive Director of the Institute for Humane Education, argues that education has drifted from its human purpose — knowing and nurturing each child — toward compliance, standardization, and performance metrics. At its core, the episode asks whether schools can be redesigned to protect curiosity rather than suppress it.
