We strive to think critically and creatively to encourage good decision making strategies to promote a sense of teamwork and collaboration. Environment: We strive to create a safe and structured environment where learners and staff come together as a community of lifelong learners. We endeavour to create a space where the pupils can take ownership of their own space.Opportunities: We have created many opportunities for both learners and staff. We have changed more to a project based approach teaching to the 21st learner, where the learners can create their own content using digital tools, working at their own pace, enhancing what they do as part of the curriculum.Resources: We have upgraded our servers, fibre between building and rolled out technology into classrooms. We have weekly meeting to share and collaborate on what we are doing in our classes and how we are implementing technology into our classrooms.Distribution of Leadership: We have numerous circumstances for our learners to become involved in leadership opportunities. Peer mediators, prefects, Captains of sports teams, class monitors, House captains, rotational class based leadership.Evaluation: Pupils complete self evaluations, staff lead feedback sessions based on these evaluations. These evaluations are used for strategic planning purposes for the following year. Twice a year each staff member engages in a peer evaluation process that involves both individual reflection and group assessment.Recognition Success means different things to different people.
