Teacher Trainers for Core Skills

Following the growing consensus that school systems need to develop young people with certain core skills and competencies (also known as 21st Century skills or “Deep Learning” skills), British Council Indonesia Foundation and HSBC Indonesia addresses the issue through Introduction to Core Skills training for educators (teachers and school leaders) in Jakarta and Bandung as a part of “Pendidikan Global; Membangun Generasi Muda Cerdas dan Berkarakter”.

The training aims to introduce educators to below six core skills, why they are essential for students, and how to embed the skills into classroom activities: critical thinking and problem solving, collaboration and communication, creativity and imagination, citizenship, student leadership and personal development, and digital literacy.
