Greetings from the Critique Club
Welcome to DPC! I see this is your second Challenge and a nice image to boot.
The voters had a bit of trouble with your image, and indeed, except for the title, it doesn't really say education. Many people have learned that titles, while good to have, don't influence the voter very much. Then, while the composition is (imo) excellent, the technical aspects are a little off, perhaps. It's fairly important to have at least some of your image really sharp, and with that 1.2 aperture your depth of field just wasn't enough to make anything really sharp. I'd suggest bracketing your shots to see what is most pleasing. I do wonder what, say a 5.6 would have done. It looks as if you had enough light to get a fast enough shutter speed to stop action. I guess that's where bracketing comes in.
I do wish you lots of luck and fun at DPChallenge and will look forward to seeing more of your photography.
