In St Paul\u2019s, we strive to make our pupils leaders of their own learning. We understand the importance of pupils being able to articulate their thinking and to extend their understanding across the curriculum .<\/p>\n

What is \u2018Visible Learning\u2019 ?<\/b><\/p>\n

Visible Learning is an approach to learning and teaching. It enables students to become their own teachers and teachers to become learners of their own teaching. Both become fully involved in the learning process and understand the impact and role they play in this in order to progress and become successful learners and inspired and passionate teachers.<\/p>\n

Professor John Hattie and his panel of researchers have undertaken world wide studies spanning more than 20 years. He has put his findings into practice and the research outlines that pupils learn best when they are active participants in their learning.<\/p>\n

Visible Learning enables pupils to understand, make connections, act on feedback and make progress in their learning.<\/p>\n

As a school, we continue to use research to inform our thinking and use this to make positive developments in learning and teaching.<\/p>\n

What makes a good learner?<\/b><\/p>\n

At the beginning of our Visible Learning journey, pupils were asked their thoughts on what made a good learner. Here are some of our pupil quotes throughout different stages within the school.<\/p>\n

A good learner\u2026<\/p>\n

…doesn\u2019t give up and helps their buddy.<\/p>\n

…asks for feedback.<\/p>\n

…learns from their mistakes and thinks things over.<\/p>\n

…let\u2019s their learning partner try something new and shows their partner how to learn.<\/p>\n

…works hard to help their brain grow.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We developed the pupils\u2019 ideas and the qualities they stated to create our school learning dispositions.<\/p>\n

Learning Dispositions<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b>Learning dispositions refer to the way in which\u00a0pupils engage in and relate to the\u00a0learning\u00a0process.\u00a0Learning dispositions\u00a0can affect how students approach\u00a0their learning. They also enable a shared language of learning which is used by all staff and pupils throughout the school.<\/p>\n

Our school Learning and Pupil Councils worked creatively to select names, ideas and a theme for our learning dispositions.<\/p>\n

Throughout this school year, our pupils have been becoming more familiar with the learning disposition characters and the associated language. You may have noticed stickers, comments on your child\u2019s work or on Seesaw relating to the dispositions. We have also been completing related tasks during assembly time.<\/p>\n

Folders of Achievement<\/strong><\/p>\n

Each pupil in St Paul\u2019s RCPS has an electronic record of their learning which is added to their Seesaw journal on a termly basis. As a school, we plan and record for three terms, which are: Term 1: Aug-Dec, Term 2: Jan-Apr, Term 3: Apr-Jun.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Each term, teachers in St Paul\u2019s set learning targets for all areas of the curriculum. We then share with families the targets for Literacy, Numeracy, Health & Wellbeing along with two other identified curricular area per term.<\/p>\n
