Cognitive skills program to launch as extracurricular activity in schools

A total of 115 students have graduated from the cognitive development program offered by the Kimaya Foundation in collaboration with Brighter Minds.

While speaking during the event, an representative from the Foundation says that the Ministry of Education will soon roll out this as an approved extra curricular activity in schools nationwide.

The aim is to reach at least 1,000 children.

This program is designed for children aged 5 to 15 and it is built around the the concept of neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to grow, adapt and strengthen when stimulated through the right practices.

The representative says that the program focuses on developing skills such as focus, emotional intelligence, memory, intuition and self confidence.
