  • 21st Century Schooling

    We are at a moment in history when we must profoundly question the nature and relevance of schooling in a contemporary world and ask ourselves whether the current model of schooling, which is deeply rooted in an industrial paradigm, is going to serve our students and our society? It would appear that our current model of schooling isn’t making the grade. We must jettison out-dated ideologies of schooling if we are going to deliver a world-class education for every student that doesn’t simply prepare them for work in a knowledge age but transforms their lives.
