It is time to change the school system to fit all individuals, and all of what makes us human. This is not a political statement, this is facts-based and urgent. Our kids and youths are struggling, at the same time as they are a key to forming a sustainable society. We need to break out of our collective trauma and predetermined ideas about what school is, and start nurturing souls, fostering good relationship skills and a life-long love for learning and co-creating.
Teal Schools are schools for the future
Learning is human Internal motivation is key Life-long learning is human Stop forcing education Learning is human
NEWS
When starting Teal School in 2018 we used to think Teal schools was the way forward, a way of making schools adapt to the paradigm shift that was emerging. Now we've seen the world taking a different path. Polarisation, nationalistic and authoritarian ideologies, a rise in conspiracy theories and things like the "manosphere" advocating a backwards movement towards a stronger patriarchy.
Now, we see that our ideas and objectives are more important than ever, but the narrative and focus must change. In blogs and work in 2027 you will see more focus on societal development.
OUR PURPOSE
We started out with the purpose of bringing the Teal paradigm to schools. Teal schools are human-centered, purpose-driven and highly suited for a complex, fast-evolving world.
We still stand by that.
But the more important purpose that has emerged is:
Can we be positive co-creators in the world we as a species is forming? How can we make schools have the tools and knowledge to prepare kids for living in a complex and unstable world, and how can we make kids be a part of positive change, rather than fall down conspiracy black holes? How do schools need to change to meet the needs of kids, youths, society and the world the next 10-20 years?
JOIN OR SUPPORT US
We want to deepen the understanding of how the society of today affects children and youths and how we as a society can make sure we support them in any way possible. Both for their own sake as individuals, and for the sake of the society.
We welcome parents, teachers, scientists, school leaders, community builders and everyone open for discussing a change in how we as a society think about schools, learning and education, for a better future.

Understand the urgency
Paradigm shift Mental health Sustainable society Co-creation, cooperation
There is an urgency. Society is psychology. The systems we have created are based on the understanding, thoughts, values, and ultimately, feelings, of generations before us. We need to break free of tradition, and see the world for what it is, and needs to be, now and in the future.
