Rethinking the jealously guarded foundations of the modern school system
There is widespread dissatisfaction across the globe with the current state of schools and their failure to prepare children for a world that is being revolutionised by technology and the process of globalisation.
We believe the developing world must embrace new ideas early, and not simply trail behind the ‘developed world’ – as if we do we will only fall further behind. As the regions largest private educator, we believe we are ideally placed to help forge a new educational consensus.
Moreover, we are hoping this conference will shine a light on the more progressive educational elements of Pakistan country, thereby encouraging them to flourish. In the eyes of the world, Pakistan’s education means only one thing: madrassahs. It is time to shed this perception.
