Formation Learning ....caring, nurturing, challenging

 

Your learning coach: Home, school, student partnership. 

 

Formation Learning involves times where small groups of students are guided by a teacher as their learning coach. This key person forms strong relationships with and works in partnership with the teacher students and their families, spending extended periods of the week working together. The coach maintains regular contact with families.

​

The coach provides a caring environment for academic and pastoral mentoring and guidance, and ensures each student is following a robust, challenging programme. The learning Hub is a time for learners to be exposed to a wide range of ideas, interests, skills and experiences which support their learning. During learning Hub sessions students develop skills around learning to learn, wellbeing and the habits to be successful inquirers and self-directed learners. There is an emphasis on holistic development.
