Critical Thinking
Observe. Question. Think. These are the fundamental skills for this generation of learners in making independent judgments. Our flagship Critical Thinking Socrates Program ignites our students brain power to question the seemingly obvious and think for themselves.
Led by our talented educators, students engage in discussions, debates, and simulations on thought-provoking current affairs and everyday phenomena.

Critical Thinking
Critical Thinking Socrates Program Level 1
(AGE 9-11 / G4-G6 / Y5-Y7 / P4-P6) (SO1)
Demo Questions:
- Why are old buildings worth more than new skyscrapers?
- Why are “free spaces” the most expensive to maintain?
Why do we call cities, our community and our home? What do we need to build a concrete jungle that is sustainable and functional? Other overarching topics in the course being covered include tangible aspects such as infrastructure systems and services, and abstract aspects such as education and mental wellbeing. As students create a future home for future-ready citizens through knowledge, research, discussion and discourse, we will guide them the visualize and document their learning journey of “What is Home”
Critical Thinking Socrates Program Level 2
(AGE 12-14 / G7-G9 / Y8-Y10 / S1-S3) (SO2)
Demo Questions:
- Does buying from poor countries have to be hurtful to the poor?
- Does the government have to stand for something or someone?
As the world contends with crisis after crisis, we see a world that is closer together in experience but further apart in action. In this fall term of Socrates, we will visit the fabric of the world village through the lens of security, diplomatic and environmental challenges. We will be enhancing students’ skills in research and critical analysis as we investigate the frameworks that bind countries together as well as consider how solutions for evolving uncertainties that governments face.
