What if school nurtured the passion and interest of every young person? — from Anne Knock
Excerpt:
As we move away from valuing some intelligences over others and recognising that there is value in the contributions of all – school can become the nurturing ground for all students, as it should be.
We need to create environments – in our schools, in our workplaces and in our public offices – where every person is inspired to grow creatively. We need to make sure that all people have the chance to do what they should be doing, the discover the *Element in themselves and in their own way.

* Element – the place where things we love to do and things we are good at come together.
