Theory Reflection
Introduction
This reflective writing is based on analyzing a case study and then reflecting on
dealing with the major issues present in the case. The case study chosen for the analysis
contains a scenario based on the education system. I will be reflecting on the issue
highlighted within the case study while narrating my own views in response to the case
questions. Finally, I will summarise the whole theory reflection in the later section of this
paper.

Being the principal of an elite high school within the Christian community, based on
(Gibbs, 2016), I will deal with this issue with my critical thinking and analytical skills while
dealing with this issue. After analyzing the case and issue within the scenario, it has been
identified that unawareness of the parents, as well as students about the educational
philosophies, caused conflicts and issues among teachers, students, and parents.
Subsequently, the teacher was blamed for teaching useless theories and concepts to the
students and hence parents of those students complained to me for firing her from her job of
teaching. In addition, the parents and students also claimed that the teacher Ms Prudesh has
harmed their religious freedom while undermining the integrity of the school as well as
education philosophies.
In this way, according to me the process of dealing with the narrated issue will be
having the following steps:

 First of all, after investigating that post 6 weeks of teaching classical logic, theories of
Greek and Latin rhetoric and Aristotelian philosophies Ms. Prudesh wished to teach
the students few non-Western forms of logic and hence she was teaching lessons on
the Vedic chakra and Nadi system, I will research on the significance and
applicability of these non-Western forms of logic. I also found that Ms. Prudesh was
teaching energetic meditation exercises for cleansing students’ energy systems and
auras along with the lessons on how to read the “Akashic records” hence my approach
will majorly contain sorting the whole issue with the counseling and discussion with
the parents and students.
 After researching on the significance of the non-Western subjects taught by the
teacher, I would have talked to her personally and asked her to prepare herself for
justifying her teaching approach and ideas in favor of students’ future career
endeavors. My approach of telling her to be prepared for providing justification will
be used because parents in majority expressed their interests of wanting her fired from
the school thus for preserving teacher’s career I will advise her.
 Later then, I will call a PTM (Parents Teacher Meeting) of the whole class with Ms.
Prudesh in my presence. My further action into the direction of solving this issue is
the principle of the school will be telling the details of the incident to the parents as
well as students within the PTM. While telling them the significance of the Nadi
system, and non-Western forms of logic I will also tell the parents that the topics
taught by Ms. Prudesh were not useless but they were value added for the students’
future career development.
 After discussing with the parents and students in the PTM, I will ask their opinions
about the topics and concepts which are going to teach by Ms. Prudesh so that extra
classes can be held for those students who are really willing to learn non-Western
