Inset: Importance of Resilience
Part of our INSET day on Monday was to launch a focus on our next learning value: Resilience. Partly inspired by Team GB success and other successful famous individuals, we began by defining resilience and why it is such an important quality. We also wanted to work our thinking around to the classroom and why it's such an important learning behaviour. Teaching children well being and happiness is important and the ability to 'Bounce' back when things don't go so well is a vital part of this. We also considered how to teach and model this in the classroom. What do children do when they find something hard? How can we support them in getting off and beyond that first step? Over the next few weeks, each class will be looking at building resilience into their work and we hope it encourages pupils to take a more positive view of themselves and how they learn.
