For Ben, the education system didn’t quite work, yet he’s now a successful business owner. Are we allowing children to develop their natural abilities or are we trying to fit lots of square pegs into a round hole? Should we be allowing kids to have more say in the things they learn about to get the most out of them? What would you be doing now if you’d been allowed to fully dive into the subject that interested you most at school?

How would the world look if we’d all been taught real-world skills rather than algebra?

Sandra believes that we should be prioritising Emotional Intelligence as much as we do Academia in schools. How different would society be if we had all learnt to control our emotions and be more in tune with other people from an early age? Is fact-based learning all that we should be teaching our kids?
