Children have always been taught to be groomed universally, but is this even necessary? The current generation of children is far more technologically advanced than their predecessors. Similarly, the need for proper comprehension of concepts apart from mainstream academics has become critical in this age.

 

A child of the present generation has to be taught not only about the subjects prescribed by the board but also about the skills which will enable them to be future leaders. The importance of 21st century skills is more than ever as we are educating the young minds to be self-reliant and confident human beings so ultimately these abilities become necessities.

 

Children are now exposed to sports, leadership activities, debates, extra-curricular activities, etc. all of which harness the skills of the children and aid them in making their own choices. We have already seen the emergence of so many new careers which are extremely dynamic and competence based which motivates us to make our childrenbe future ready to excel into all the dimensions of life!
