Building a learning nation

The Cayman Islands are gaining recognition the world over for building world-class learning spaces which reflect both 21st-Century thinking and the islands’ rich and unique culture. Here you can share in the progress of the most innovative, exciting and highly publicised capital programme for education ever undertaken in the Caribbean. These are the reflections in real time of those who are making it happen and those whose lives will be touched; educators, parents, students, government staff, architects, planners, and providers of the services students will ultimately benefit from. The world is watching this one, so leave your comments, link to the site and get in touch if you want to know more.

Professor Heppell on new Teaching and Learning styles in use as core part of Little Cayman project

"In an increasingly joined up world the ability to communicate across oceans and across cultures have transformed the way we work and now, the way we learn too. The confidence that the young people develop through this linking will stand them in good stead as 21st century citizens, employees and even (one day perhaps!) as parents. But for now the excitement in these global learners' eyes is enough to confirm that it is all worthwhile. And this is just the beginning". Professor Stephen Heppell.
