At our School we work to make the children able. You learn and become able

1. When you feel comfortable and safe.
2. When you want to learn something or know you need to learn it
3. When you know why, not just how.
4. When you are not afraid to make mistakes.
5. When you know what is expected and what is acceptable.
6. When you have time, and you feel relaxed and enjoy the lesson.
7. When you are allowed to explore and explain what you have learned.
8. When someone notices you’ve done well and you are praised, (and the good news is passed on to someone important to you).
9. When you think about what worked and didn’t work and decide how to do better.
10. When you are encouraged to think about things in new ways.
11. When you are encouraged to discuss work, or share your skills and knowledge with others.
12. When you are helped and supported by friends.
