Cathedral’s overarching pedagogy (the way in which we plan, teach, organise, facilitate and support learning) ensures an appropriate balance of adult-led, adult-initiated and learner-led learning.

On his usual learning walk through the school on Thursday 24th October, Mr Young encountered some fantastic learner-led learning in amongst the various adult-led and adult-initiated activities. The above Primary 4 learners were engaged in constructing Victorian houses whilst, at the other end of Winners Wynd, the Primary 5 learners below were in the Art Attack zone selecting different craft materials to make a Halloween-themed creation. Of course, all of these young learners had absolutely no problem articulating the skills they were using and developing which included planning, designing and collaborating.
