This is What Schools Are Getting Wrong: How to Future-Proof Your Child's Education

Описание: What if the future of education isn’t about more technology — but about the one thing technology can’t replace?

In this episode of Bloom Talk, we sit down with Dr. Emmanuel Vincent, Maple Bloom’s Head of School, to explore what children truly need to thrive in a world shaped by AI, uncertainty, and constant change.

Dr. Vincent shares his remarkable journey from Ernst & Young to the classroom, the moment that changed everything, and why he believes schools must let go of outdated models to prepare children for the future they are growing into.

This conversation is for parents, educators, and school leaders asking:

Are schools actually preparing children for the future?

What role should AI play in education?

Why are relationships, play, and imagination more important than ever?

What is the one skill children will need for life, not just exams?

This is not a discussion about trends.
It’s about how children grow, who they become, and what truly lasts.

🎧 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

Why loving school matters more than chasing grades

What AI is changing — and what it never will

How play, agency, and imagination fuel real learning

Why one-size-fits-all education fails children

The role parents and schools must play together

Why relationships are the ultimate future-proof skill
