The school of the future is the kind of school that awaits us in a few decades. Most likely, the concept of the school will not change, the students will learn the material, take exams, enter universities, but how the school itself will look is a completely different question. The entire modern world is becoming more and more computerized and technological. Even now, schools are undergoing many changes that would have excited the minds of students half a century ago: electronic diaries, computer labs, projectors in every classroom, all exams are taken under cameras online, the entire education system is moving from a conservatory to the education system of the future.
