By continuing to deliver the present standardized system of education we are putting millions of learners throughout the world at disadvantage.

Most of the public education offerings have been with us for more than 150 years, and during that time the basic delivery has remained unchanged - with between 20 to 30 children of approximately the same age seated in a classroom and taught by one person.

Even though adjusting and updating the curriculum may have been a focus, delivery has stayed the same. Learners have still been taught in a standardized and industrialized way - and as with anything that comes from centralized control, it is highly inefficient, bureaucratic, and wasteful.

Some parents may think that the overall educational system has changed substantially, but teaching practice has not.

With the teacher at the front of the classroom and the children seated in rows facing the teacher is the optimal way to learn for some students.

Children learn best in different ways. Some children are best suited to learn through visual stimulation. Others may learn best through hands-on education.

The reality is that the current educational system doesn’t really accommodate any learning style, nor does it aim for anything other than achieving higher-than-average test scores.
