At a time when critical thinking, creative problem solving and collaboration are highly valued and needed to succeed in society, the Arts provide a powerful method for developing these abilities.
ISC and other modern schools around the world recognize this need and are strengthening their Arts Programs as well as developing purpose-built learning environments to address this skill demand.
"You need to be creative not only to learn, but to teach. Creativity is not a gift. It is like a muscle that needs to be exercised. We need to stimulate children and give opportunities for them to develop this skill."
"Drama is not just about acting. It is about transferring the skills learned during the class to real-life situations. It is about learning how to feel comfortable around people."
