The climate emergency is still pressing
Fresh minds, new voices
Since the dawn of civilisation, education of younger generations has been paramount to ensuring the continuation of society. Over the course of millenia, different educational models have arisen. An emphasis on personalised interaction and cross-subject study has shifted towards ‘education en masse’, with increasing degrees of specialisation as pupils advance to higher levels. So too is there an emphasis on achieving the best possible grades, rather than encouraging inquiry and developing knowledge for its own sake.
Could it be that the current approach is lacking? That it serves to undermine curiosity, creativity and initiative? There is evidence to suggest so. Sir Ken Robinson’s landmark publication ‘All Our Futures: Creativity, Culture and Education’ highlighted the need for a change in direction, but little progress has been made.
