Personalised Learning
What is Personalised Learning?
Our creative curriculum has been praised by Derby hire Local Authority because it is
relevant, real, fun and stimulating. At St Oswald’s we give children first hand experiences to help them to develop new skills, knowledge and understanding.At St Oswald’s we help pupils become better learners, encouraging them to reach their potential and take responsibility for their own learning.
Personalised Learning helps children understand how and why they learn and how they can take more responsibility for their own learning.
Personalised Learning gives children opportunities to share what they already know about a topic and how or what they would like to learn more of. For example one of our topics is growth. Children will be asked what animals or insects they would like to investigate and learn about.
Therefore each time a topic is taught by the teachers they are responding to the individual interests of the children in the class.
Please take a look at all the ways we involve the children in Personalised Learning. If you have any further questions please call in and have a chat with us.
