Core learning Values

Our learning values of independence, collaboration and creativity develop:

Independent learners – children are encouraged to: be confident, think for themselves, take risks, persevere, ask questions, make decisions, solve problems, make connections and communicate their ideas.

Progression of skills for independent learners

Collaborative learners – children are encouraged to: communicate, listen, co-operate and work together as a team with equal responsibility and with clear roles. They are responsible for both their own learning and that of their team members.

Progression of skills for collaborative learners

Creative learners – the children are encouraged to question and challenge. They will make connections and see relationships, envisaging what might be, exploring ideas and keeping options open, reflecting critically on ideas, actions and outcomes.
