What is the future of education?

The world around us is constantly evolving, disruptions have become the norm, which is why the responsibility towards learners has increased for educationists. We cannot rely only on a prescribed curriculum that trains learners towards professions that we know or are familiar with because learners may have career paths that we aren't aware of today. Which brings us to the question, what role does education play? What is the future of education?

If the pandemic taught us one thing, it is that the experience of going to school is irreplaceable. We can learn concepts in an online set-up, but a progressive school's curriculum isn't only about learning information but rather about skill-building. The logical, thinking and analytical skills developed through various activities done in and outside a classroom cannot be replaced. A school curriculum is only complete when it looks at the whole child, which goes far beyond academics. The pandemic has driven home what the future of education should be. For JBCN, the future of education is not to educate but to EduCreate.

JBCN educationists always believe that they are not just Educating but EduCreating. At JBCN, EduCreate is the mantra and the driving force behind their planning. The EduCreative Programme looks at every child's academic, creative, physical and emotional needs. The programme is developed thoughtfully with an innovative and compassionate teaching approach at its core.

As learners grow, their needs change, whether academically or emotionally, so does their ability to connect with each student in their classroom. The teachers at JBCN International School are trained to play the role of a facilitator to support the learners in a positive learning environment. Through dynamic teaching methodologies and creative teaching that combines thematic and interdisciplinary approaches, every learner becomes an active participant in the learning process. Simply put, the technique introduces the learner to a "big conceptual idea" through an interdisciplinary theme that connects all learning into a 'big picture. It enables learners to analyse, synthesise, evaluate and interpret information or a problem and develop solutions.

At JBCN, the iPropel programme ensures that in addition to classroom learning, the child is also developing the other aspects of their personality. The programme encompasses programmes for innovation, Performing arts, Research and reasoning, Outreach, Physical fitness, Experiential learning and Leadership skills.
