The Basics: What & How Students Learn

1

21st Century Competencies

BE Future Ready. Did you know that 85% of the jobs in 2030 do not exist yet? These competencies specifically target building a capacity for students to be prepared for what we can't anticipate. We offer a multitude of programs that target different competencies: on average each program develops 3 competencies & 12 sub-competencies.

Twin Track Program Structure

Individual Track

12 Sessions to complete in 8 Weeks.  Every session is linked to a different sub-competency. Each week has its allocated sessions and although we nudge and support students to complete a week’s sessions by the end of the week, it is up to them to find time and complete the sessions. We will always support students on their journey and help them catch up when necessary.

Group Work

Group Track

We are really proud of connecting students to an international student network (from South Africa to Colombia, Slovakia, the UAE and even more) who they closely work with to build projects aligned with their program choice. BE Community Buddies help facilitate some group sessions, which culminates in the Grand Finale of the program and gives students space to present their projects in front of a jury.

What does your child receive?

Full Assessment

We have a dedicated research team to ensure the tools we use is both theory and empirically driven. For theory, it is based on current scientific literature on educational, social, & children’s psychology as well as on science & computer learning. As for the empirical aspect, it is based on interviews with teachers, Heads of School, and of course, with children. All that so that your child receives a personalized, accurate assessment and development of their 21st Century Competencies.

Assessment visual report

Certificate

Students who complete the program are awarded with a certificate that does more than give credit for completing the program. It has a summary of the competencies your child has developed, that empowers them to take pride in their achievement and use the certificate in their future careers or university applications.

Competition

Every program comes with a competition, where students are rewarded individually for their engagement in work sessions and challenges and in a group context for their collective project. At the end of the program, students stand a chance to win prizes ranging from a new iPhone to an opportunity to implement their theoretical group project in the world.
