Future School - A High School of Auroville
Future School evolved from an earlier project called The Centre for Further Learning (CFL), created by two of Auroville's youth. At the time of the conception of the idea of CFL, there were at least 25 teen-agers studying in schools outside of AV. The founders of Future School believed that Auroville could not continue the search for a new Auroville-based curriculum or approach to education, without the presence and input of the age group who would be most affected. In addition, they realised that the present generation of children growing up in Auroville either came here with parents or were born here, and did not necessarily make a conscious choice of living in Auroville. Due to the reality of the world outside of Auroville, all the youth of Auroville should have the possibility and choice to equip themselves within Auroville, with the keys they will need to open doors anywhere in the world.
