4 BACKGROUND Every country in the world needs a high-quality, 1 inclusive and equitable school system that supports young people develop knowledge, skills and values to live and work in a globalised economy, contributing responsibly both locally and globally. Research has shown that in order to participate in a global economy, young people need to be equipped with core skills, which supplement the traditional curriculum, subject-focussed approach of most education systems across the world. The British Council s work with school systems aims to improve learning outcomes for young people in this area. 1 UNESCO Sustainable Development Goal 4.
5 WHAT ARE CORE SKILLS? British Council consulted a range of stakeholders, drew upon research on the 2 3 deep pedagogies framework and UNESCO s transversal skills and then decided to focus on supporting teachers develop their pedagogy in the following six core skills and competencies. WAYS OF WORKING Communication and Collaboration COMMUNICATION AND COLLABORATION WAYS OF THINKING Critical Thinking and Problem Creativity and Imagination CRITICAL THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING CREATIVITY AND IMAGINATION WAYS OF LIVING Student Leadership and Personal Development Citizenship STUDENT LEADERSHIP AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT CITIZENSHIP TOOLS NEEDED Digital Literacy DIGITAL LITERACY These skills as listed above have often also been referred to as Life Skills, 21st Century Skills etc. depending upon country and context. British Council believes Core Skills have to be strongly embedded local cultural context and curriculum along with literacy and numeracy skills. 2 Fullan, M and Langworthy, M (2013) Towards a new end: New Pedagogies for Deep Learning. Seattle: Collaborative Impact 3 UNESCO, (2013) Integrating Transversal Competencies in Education Policy and Practice. 5
6 CRITICAL THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING Even in a world where most children are still learning basic skills, critical thinking and problem solving can and should be taught. Thinking critically to design and manage projects, solve problems, make effective decisions using a variety of digital tools and resources. (Fullan and Langworthy, 2013) Creativity, entrepreneurship, resourcefulness, application skills, reflective thinking, reasoned decision-making. (UNESCO, 2013) British Council definition: SELF-DIRECTED THINKING THAT PRODUCES NEW AND INNOVATIVE IDEAS AND SOLVES PROBLEMS. REFLECTING CRITICALLY ON LEARNING EXPERIENCES AND PROCESSES AND MAKING EFFECTIVE DECISIONS. 6
7 CREATIVITY AND IMAGINATION Creativity and imagination are essential human capacities. They enable us to express thoughts, feelings and aspirations, and help us to fashion our ever changing culture.

9 CITIZENSHIP Education must fully assume its central role in helping people to forge more just, peaceful, tolerant and inclusive societies. It must give people the understanding, skills and values they need to co-operate in resolving the interconnected challenges of the 21st 4 century.

10 DIGITAL LITERACY Digital technologies are rapidly becoming embedded in more and more aspects of our daily lives. Our personal and social lives are increasingly influenced by them, and our culture is constantly being shaped by new developments. One size fits all approaches would not be appropriate, given the wide variations in technology, knowledge and approaches between schools and across different national and local contexts. British Council definition: USING TECHNOLOGY AS A TOOL TO REINFORCE, EXTEND AND DEEPEN LEARNING THROUGH INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION. ENABLING THE STUDENT TO DISCOVER, MASTER AND COMMUNICATE KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION IN A GLOBALISED ECONOMY. 10
