Education & Schooling Te Modern Family


19


Raising future innovators


While great teaching lays the foun- dation, raising healthy, prosperous children ready for meaningful future careers thrives at the intersection of families, communities and industry working alongside educators. In a rapidly evolving world, parents


and companies dedicated to social impact are influencing the next gen- eration of problem-solvers, engineers, creators and leaders. What it means to raise a modern family is being redefined by this potent triad of home, school and industry.


LEARNING BEYOND THE SCHOOL GATES Te workplace is changing quickly. An estimated 65% of children starting primary school today will work in jobs that don’t yet exist, according to the World Economic Forum. Redefining learning is key: connect-


ing young people with purposeful, real-world experiences, anchored in schools, reinforced at home and ele- vated through meaningful collabora- tion with industry will help to bridge the gap between education and the evolving demands of the future. Making this model a reality is the


goal of Creative Hut, a leading global provider of STEAM (science, tech- nology, engineering, arts and math- ematics) education. Collaborating with multinational corporations such as Amazon and sports organi- sations such as Tottenham Hotspur and Red Bull Racing, Creative Hut offers educational programmes that blend curriculum-related content, the latest educational technology and real- world projects, igniting the interest and self-assurance of students from all walks of life.


BUSINESS ENGAGEMENT THAT ENCOURAGES BRIGHT FUTURES Business executives are actively influencing learning through Cre- ative Hut’s impact-led outreach programmes rather than merely sup- porting it. Tese initiatives, which


range from corporate-sponsored workshop programmes and compe- titions to mobile learning labs that bring STEAM education straight into schools, give future careers a tangible, relevant and attainable feel. According to Gareth Boldsworth,


Creative Hut’s CEO, “Tese aren’t just workshops; they’re turning points that spark an interest. A student’s confidence in their ability to build a robot, program artificial intelligence, while solving a real-world problem carries over into everything they do. Companies provide the topical rel- evance, schools embed the learning and parents reinforce engagement at home. It’s amazing to see the impact from this approach.”


THE PARENTAL ROLE IN THE DIGITAL AGE Te role of the family continues to be the bedrock, with children more likely to succeed academically and socially when they learn at home. Effective parental involvement can improve a child’s learning by the equivalent of three or more months annually,


according to research from the Edu- cation Endowment Foundation. Tis


is why Creative Hut incor-


porates home engagement into its initiatives. Te idea is straightforward: to make learning a shared adventure. Tis can be achieved through playful challenges that families solve together. Boldsworth continues, “Families


are asking: how do I help my child learn positive skills for the future when technology is changing so rapidly? Our solution is to include them in the discussion — provide them with the resources, vocabulary and encouragement, so parents and children can collaborate to solve a problem related to the real world.”


LEAVING A LEGACY Te overarching objective of these initiatives is two-fold: to give chil- dren the personal skills to navigate a complex world, and to create a more diverse, talented and motivat- ed workforce that will solve future challenges. Creative Hut nurtures this critical intersection, leaving a true educational legacy.
