“My hopes for my daughter’s future are embedded in what I hope the education system will become. I want an education system that allows not just my child, but all Singaporeans’ children to flourish, regardless of their gifts, be they in maths or science, social sciences, arts, humanities, or sport,” shared Jamus Lim, during IPG Howden’s recent Future-Ready session on the changing face of the global education system, co-hosted by The Peak.
A young father, parliamentarian and an Associate Professor of economics at ESSEC Business School, he added, “If I was the education tzar, I would design a multi-tiered system where those who can (and do) thrive on a narrower but nevertheless important/lucrative skill set are identified, nurtured, and allowed to excel. This would be in addition to a broader-based education where performance across a wide range of subjects is also possible.”
His hopeful reimagining of the future of education was echoed by all six educators who shared personal experiences in harnessing the potential of all learners.
“Students are the driving force behind a transition to a future-ready education system in Singapore. This has spurred teachers and mentors to reassess traditional teaching methods and design more innovative and creative curriculums to equip students with the tools they need to take on the challenges of the 21st century and beyond,” observed co-host Reuben Mashicharan, Head of International Desk at IPG Howden.
