  1. Mrs Johnston It is going to be tough out there and we don’t know what is ahead of us

  2. Approach to Learning "I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win; if you don't, you won't.“ - Bruce Jenner (Olympic Gold Medalist, Decathlon)

  3. How do we get it right? • High aspirations • High expectations • High quality teaching and learning • Skills v content • Students work hard • Grouping • Support for individuals

  4. Achievement: Progress • Current sub-divided level • Transition grid to monitor progress

  5. Approach to Learning • Excellent Learner • Good Learner • Passive Learner • Reluctant Learner

  6. Reluctant Learner

  7. Reluctant Learner • I do the work because I have to • I do not stick at tasks when they get difficult • I find it hard to get started on a task as I am easily distracted • I need constant attention from my teacher to keep me on task • I am not that bothered about the presentation of my work • I only act on feedback if I know my teacher is going to check it • I am not interested in taking on challenging tasks

  8. Excellent Learner

  9. Excellent Learner • I try a range of available methods and strategies to help me solve problems • I persist with work even when it gets difficult • I only ask my teacher to suggest another way of doing something or get feedback on my own method • I take real care and pride when presenting work • I am always looking for ways in which I can improve and learn • I love challenging tasks and am happy to work outside school time to improve further • I care more about improving myself and learning than my marks as I don’t see them as the ‘be all and end all’

  10. Rewards and Behaviour Classroom Rewards Reflective Learner Resilient Learner Resourceful Learner Responsible Learner. Reasoning.
