How do we prepare children
for jobs that don’t exist yet?
None of us knows today what the world is
going to require of us tomorrow. But some of us
are keeping an extremely close eye on things.
Many of the skills that will be called for
in the future are embedded in the Sevenoaks
curriculum now.
Critical thinking, for instance, is exercised
here daily from the start. So are creative thinking,
complex problem solving, negotiation, team
working and service provision.
With one eye firmly trained on the world
beyond our gates, we equip all our students with
the skills they will need to reshape it.
So if sixty per cent of roles have yet to be
invented*, Sevenoaks alumni will be ready to take
them on when they are.
