Therefore, the aims of this study was to explore the challenges faced by teachers, parents and students in embedding HOTS in their life. Research findings revealed that there are other factors that were not being recognized in influencing the success in practicing and teaching HOTS. This study explored the factors which contributed to the challenges in HOTS. The important factors are time management, environment, teachers training, student’s acceptance and proper system’s direction which also play a very important role in the success of HOTS. In this paper we discussed on teachers faced several challenges in teaching HOTS as well as parents find it difficult to guide their children. It is crucial for the students to be able to think critically and apply the knowledge as this is to build the leaders of the future.
