Subject hub
Schools and education
Editor’s introduction still to be written. Two or three sentences of orientation belong here: what KARA has covered in this subject, what changed over twenty years, and who it matters to. This is the paragraph that makes a hub a page worth ranking rather than a tag listing, so it is deliberately left visible rather than filled with generated text.
