Every Parent has had big questions since the birth of a child. Will our child emerge as successful human? Will our investment of energy, time and money in our child will help? What we can do so our child stays healthy and safe when at school? How our child will be engaged in learning, supported whenever needed and challenged to do wonders? We all want our kid to have the best of everything? Don’t we want them to be winners? To be the next Einstein or Picasso? We only want for them to get ahead in life and won’t settle for anything less, it’s the universal truth. So why settle for conventional teaching methods and outdated content acquisition practices? At thinking school we have answers to your questions and around 10,000 schools transformed as TSI worldwide. This model is perhaps new for Pakistan but not for the world. The top lined schools in the world transformed to Thinking School and their success stories are a great inspiration for the people who look at high quality schooling models.
The world is a constantly changing place as far as communication, technology and global opportunities go. So why are we still teaching our kids with the same antiquated teaching methods our grandparents used?
The evolution of education over the past 100 years from a static view of intelligence and brain development, rote learning and the focus on the “banking” system of imparting knowledge toward the dynamic facilitation and mediation of thinking across whole schools has been slow. In the mid-1950s and even earlier, pioneers in the fields of psychology and education offered a vision of schools based on principles of collaborative classrooms and a vision of explicitly developing the minds of every learner. With the rapid shift in global travel, communication, and new technologies in this new century—and the new brain research showing the dynamic plasticity of human development—the vision of Thinking Schools International matches the needs of our time, and of the future of the children around the world.inking schools international around the world have already set remarkable examples.

ASCD Global Whole Child Network
A student’s learning is influenced by their social emotional state. For example, a student coping with divorce or one who is constantly teased by their classmates may not have the option to concentrate or perform well in class. For optimal learning to happen, the emotional and social well-being of the students ought to also be considered and addressed; and this forms the Whole Child Approach.
The goal of the Whole Child Approach is to improve students’ academic performances, yet in addition contribute to their overall advancement. This approach aims to give students the assistance and structure for attaining long-term achievement in all areas of their life.
The teacher’s job in the Whole Child Approach is to encourage students to develop in each area. An entire kid is curious, creative, caring, empathetic, and confident. Whole Child Approach, which guarantees that each student is healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged, sets the standard for complete, sustainable school improvement and accommodates long-term student achievement.
Launched in 2007, ASCD’s Whole Child Initiative is an effort to change the conversation about education from a focus on narrowly defined academic achievement to one that advances the long term improvement and accomplishment of children. Through the initiative, ASCD helps educators, families, network individuals, and policymakers move from a vision about educating the entire youngster to sustainable, collaborative action. ASCD is joined in this effort by Whole Child Partner organizations representing the education, arts, health, approach, and network sectors.
