Children entering the school system today will enter a very different world of work than their parents and grandparents, thanks to digitalisation and technologies such as robotic automation and AI.

The transition from primary school to high school is an important time, often setting the tone for a learner's high school experience and subsequent entry into the workforce. Learners encounter new academic challenges in a more structured learning environment, navigate social changes, and experience intense emotional growth as they discover their passions, develop their independence, and chart their future paths.
