Education serves as a transformative force, unlocking doors to a world of possibilities and societal advancement. This journey of education isn’t merely about imparting knowledge and preparing for tests; it’s about equipping young minds with essential life skills and instilling values that mould them into responsible citizens. At Aga Khan Primary School, this philosophy recently found expression in their annual Primary Years Programme (PYP) exhibition, a culmination of months of preparation by Standard Six students, presented before an audience of parents and teachers. Dr Shelina Walli, Director of the Aga Khan Education Service (AKES), likened the PYP to the final exams for seventh-grade students. “Before the exhibitions, students work in teams to identify the topics they would like to explore, focusing on issues that will bring about positive change in society,” Dr Walli shared.
