Beliefs about Teaching and Learning
Everyone is capable of learning.
Everyone learns in different ways and learning programs need to accommodate this.
Teachers and parents are critical factors in a child’s learning success.
Teachers, students and parents accept responsibility for their learning, behaviour and goal setting.
Effective teaching is purposeful, challenging and connected to a student’s experience, stage of development and background.
Programs need to be culturally and developmentally appropriate, having real-life application.
Students need to have the opportunity to observe, practise and teach others.
The mental and physical well-being of students and staff is a priority.
Students need opportunities to engage in higher order thinking and reflection about learning.
Learning happens best when student-teacher relationships are based on mutual trust and respect.
