The Big Think is a learning programme that empowers children to create meaningful relationships with themselves, others and the world around them. The world is in desperate need of a learning revolution. Too many schools are stuck in a standardised routine and struggle to create the conditions in which children’s natural abilities and creativity can flourish. We create opportunities for children to develop this agency, in order to better navigate and impact the world around them. With us, schools can begin to lay the foundations of learning for life, not just academia. We take teachers and the wider school community through a collaborative and experiential training in order to facilitate the effective delivery of the TBT programme.

It takes a village to raise a child.

We view education as a system of closely connected parts that need to constantly interact together. To this end, we embrace all staff, children, parents and the wider community into our programmes.

Just like life, learning is not linear. We equip schools with the tools to support children aged 5 to 11, with their personal growth and sense of self, organically. We do this using a values-based programme that promotes the expansion of social and emotional development, which in turn enhances cognitive growth and mental processing. With TBT, children learn to validate and reflect on their emotions and social interactions within a global context. From using critical integrity to spot fake news to spreading kindness during the coronavirus global pandemic, The Big Think develops 21st century skills for life.
