Modern Learning

This is very much how our school is conducting our inquiry programme, which we have called DRIVE (Discover, Reflect and ask questions, Investigate, Vision and create, Evaluate):

TED TALK by a ten year old - empowering children NOW

This young girl is amazing - very confident and very astute! What she has to say is very appropriate to those of us (educators) who are aiming to increase pupil agency within their learning programmes...

Fun! (And THAT song is not to be heard...)

Successful senior camp!
