Starlit Court Education
Education system
Education within the starlit court is handled largely in two ways; formal foundational Education taught by a mix of specialized fey and teachers via VR/AR, and a less formal apprenticeship/intern program. All members of the court are entitled and obligated to complete an education to a standard set by the Small Council of Educators (SCE for short).
The Small Council of Educators
The Small Council of Educators is an agency that answers to a subcommittee of the Council of Elders that oversee education for the Starlit court. The SCE are the final authority for education in Sihi, and have numerous powers including:
- Setting the final educational target and standard of education for primary and secondary educations
- Passing rules and standards for educational institutions like collages
- Determining the budget and compensation for educators, sages, and monks involved in the education system
- Passing laws and protections for apprentices and mentors to prevent and punish abuses of authority and trust
- The power to grant educator licenses to Sihians, fey, Sages and Monks
Primary schooling
Primary schooling students are grouped into classes with a shared guidance expert who guides the student for their full Primary schooling, and cover students the equivalent age range of 6 to 12. Primary school classes are held in education centers on a daily schedule 5 days out of the week, attendance of which is mandatory. At least 50% of all classes take place in group VR/AR sessions, where Fae teach tailored lessons according to the need of the students, and to familiarize the students with the Fae and Maeve. Education during this period is mostly focused on basic arithmetic, literacy, basic physical education, and life skills, including teaching students to cook, clean, basic responsibility, technological literacy, and home skills. During the primary schooling period there is a slight focus on encouraging students to explore their passions in order to drive students to consider future careers.
