What is Critical Life Skills Curriculum?
The skills required by young citizens to engage and influence their world are currently not imparted through the classical facts-based curriculum prevalent in schools across the world.
Critical Life Skills Curriculum works on introducing the critical skills to the learners, dissecting the context wherein such skills need to be applied and finally tooling the learners to become ongoing practitioners of those skills in their own environments.

Why do schools need to introduce a Critical Life Skills Curriculum?
All K-12 Schools deploy one or the other kind of prevalent information based curriculum. But they are normally guided by the belief that extremely critical skills such as leadership, negotiation, empathy, negotiating, teamwork and decision-making etc. are best taught at higher studies level.
Skillizen founding research suggested that the hard-wiring of human brain primarily takes place between the age of 6-16 and that is the right age to impart the most critical Life skills. If these skills are not introduced during the molding age, the output of our schooling Eco-systems will grow up to be a deficient decision maker and poor problem solver in personal, professional as well as social life.
There are umpteen benefits of integrating a skills curriculum as a meta-curriculum in addition to the classical information intensive curricula. The Life skills curriculum enables learners to become more autonomous and proactive in their conduct as thinkers and learners. They will also be more future ready as they get conditioned to make connections between various contexts. In light of so many benefits, school leaders ought to embrace skills curriculum integration.
By imparting relevant skills and harnessing practice toward a real world applications, school leaders can play a big role in remaking the world.
