We often say that education is the foundation for the progress of any society. However, we are hearing more and more voices from different angles criticising contemporary education systems because, in theory, they do not respond to reality and, even worse, they kill creativity (Ahmed, 2023). In fact, it is not uncommon to hear a child or young person say that their “school” is boring. Given this apparent contradiction between theory and practice, it is worth asking: is education still the foundation for true social transformation? What should education be like today in order to respond more effectively to contemporary challenges? This is also forcefully expressed by the renowned British lecturer Sir Ken Robinson in his TED talk ‘Do schools kill creativity?’, one of the most viewed to date.
