At Elkanah House, we are passionate about equipping our children with the necessary skills for their future. It is estimated that 70% of our children will be working in jobs that do not yet exist or that current occupations which will still be around in the future will look different to what they look like today.

Teaching content has become outdated as today’s children are global citizens with access to knowledge at their fingertips. 

For these reasons, we have adopted a curriculum which focuses on skill development. These future-focused skills have been identified as our Global Competencies and are essential life skills, equipping our children to flourish and achieve in life after school. These five competencies are at the core of all our teaching and learning at Elkanah House.

Avatars have been introduced in order to personalise these Global Competencies and help our children identify with them.
