World Economic Forum: 10 Skills Young People Must Learn Today
The world is rapidly changing, The skills your child needs are different to the skills you learnt.

The world your child is growing up in is not the one you grew up in.
Technology, AI, globalisation, and rapid industry shifts have changed what it means to be prepared for the future. According to the World Economic Forum (WEF), young people now need a completely new set of core skills to thrive in school, work, and life. They are essential foundations for success in an unpredictable and opportunity-rich world.

At CURIOO, Parents often tell us, “I never learnt these skills when I was young.” That’s exactly the point. The WEF’s research highlights 10 priority skill areas:
1. analytical thinking,
2. creativity,
3. resilience,
4. leadership,
5. problem-solving,
6. technology literacy,
7. active learning,
8. emotional intelligence,
9. collaboration, and
10. reasoning.
These are the capabilities powering the future workforce and they are forming the core of what high-quality education must deliver today.

 

Traditional academic knowledge alone is no longer enough. Your child needs to be adaptable, imaginative, digitally fluent, and confident navigating complexity. The skills that matter now are the skills that cannot be automated: thinking, communicating, creating, empathising, and solving problems in new ways.

 

This is why CURIOO’s curriculum is built around Future Skills:
Entrepreneurship, Creativity, Technology, English and Communication. In every classroom, students practise the competencies the WEF identifies—designing solutions, presenting ideas, building prototypes, coding, analysing information, and reflecting on their decisions. These experiences build deep capability, not just content knowledge.

 

The advantage for your child is transformative. When they learn how to think critically, adapt quickly, and apply creativity, they are ready for any challenge, academic and real-world. Yes, the world is changing fast and the skills required to succeed in it have changed even faster. At CURIOO, we prepare children not for yesterday’s world, but for the one they are stepping into.
