Class divides

Students in all educational in­stitutions, including public and private universities, colleges, and schools, face various forms of stress. The most concerning type of stress arises from the dis­parity between the affluent and less privileged students. This ostenta­tious display fosters an environ­ment of inequality, leading to an inferiority complex and a sense of deprivation among less privi­leged students. Compounding this issue, the teaching community of­ten exhibits a preferential atti­tude towards affluent students, exacerbating the feelings of in­equality. Private schools, in par­ticular, worsen the situation by offering a different syllabus and providing a plethora of extra­curricular activities that are not available in public schools.
