Generation Z• Never known a world

without the Internet, Mobile phones or iPods

• Lived their entire lives with instant access to mountains of data

• They crave constant and immediate feedback

• Great at multi-tasking• Prefer to communicate

in short bursts than engage in long conversations

• Far more ‘aware’ of the world around them and are growing up faster than any other previous generation

Why focus on the ‘whole child’?
