There is a renewed interest in how we can offer our young people a broader, more expansive, and more engaging curriculum that develops the whole child. There are growing requirements of employers for young people to be equipped with a rich balance of knowledge, skills and dispositions, There is also an increasing need for our young people to be confident that they can navigate the complexities of today’s world.
At Big Education we believe in a meaningful education for every young person, empowering them to make a positive difference with their communities, for our world and their futures. The school visits are your chance to find out how our schools have developed a broad head (academics), heart (character and wellbeing) and hand (creativity and problem solving) curriculum.
