Bangkok Scientifique

Across the globe, people are starting to question whether the classroom is keeping pace with the world outside. While technology transforms how we live and work, students often find themselves drilling the same routines—memorising facts, following rigid curriculums, and aiming for the next standardised test score. Meanwhile, industries are hungry for adaptable minds, digital skills, and creative problem-solvers.

Many graduates leave school only to discover that the real challenges they face don’t have easy answers in any textbook. Skills like collaboration, digital literacy, and resilience are proving essential—yet rarely make an appearance in lesson plans. This disconnect is opening a gap between education and the real demands of modern life.

This session invites everyone to step back and ask: What should learning actually look like if we want to thrive in tomorrow’s world? How can schools foster the kind of curiosity and practical skills that last well beyond the classroom walls?

Our guest speaker, Dr. Alfred Baybay II DBA, MBA, has spent years at the intersection of education and business. As Director of Learner Success at WeLearn Academy, and with teaching and consulting experience spanning Bangkok, Paris, Geneva, and Singapore, Dr. Alfred brings a global perspective and practical insight into how education can truly serve the next generation. He will share eye-opening stories, lessons from international education systems, and approaches that help young people build relevant, future-ready skills. This event welcomes parents, students, teachers, and anyone interested in the future of learning. Expect a practical conversation, fresh ideas, and a chance to reimagine what education can offer.
