Learning For Life Skills

'Life is for learning, learning for life'

Our Learning for Life Skills are broken up into six areas outlined below, which are taught and nurtured across all areas and ages. These are viewed as 'Learn to Learn' skills. We recognise that these need to be seen alongside basic expectations for oracy because these are, in many ways, both the key to unlocking access to many of these areas of learning, and also central to developing the ability of learners to assimilate, enjoy, voice and reflect on their learning. The essence of these oracy expectations needs to pervade the climate of the classroom, teachers' modelling and all areas of the curriculum and school life.

The six areas of learning behaviours are:

• Self Managers
• Effective Participators
• Resourceful Thinkers
• Reflective Learners
• Independent Enquirers
• Team Workers
