An increasing societal trend is the belief that the 21st century requires a rethink of the education system. Change is happening fast and our students are growing up in a world where jobs are not certain or guaranteed. "The purpose of education is to prepare students for a world we can't envisage, so when they are stuck, they choose to think, instead of remember". Alongside this, there is also a need for education systems to impart higher level skills aligned with the demands of growing economies, where many jobs are being automated and skill sets are changing fast. Are professionals, employers and educational institutions ready for the challenge of developing the new skills this future will demand? This book has evolved out of many years of implementing innovation in education, it has been written because we believe we have something to say which might inspire, support or encourage other educationalists to take action to align the education our schools deliver with the needs of the 21st century.
