Learning and Teaching at Langshott These 6 areas inform all learning and teaching at Langshott. In order to create a positive learning culture, we believe in involving children in their learning. It is important that children are aware of what they are learning as well as why and how. We aim to achieve this by: • Adapting learning opportunities to match the children’s needs and interests • Talking to the children about how they achieved in their learning and what they need to do next • Making sure the learning has a clear purpose and making links to real life (where appropriate) Child Centred AfL High Expectations Inclusive Engagement Challenge Relationships

Langshott Learning Powers The language of Building Learning Power is used in all classrooms, with all children, where it enables all children to talk about learning to learn. We refer to the four dispositions (4Rs) as a group of ‘learning muscles’. Just as we can build out physical muscles with the right exercise, learning muscles can also be developed and can grow in strength and stamina. It is these dispositions that we are aiming to develop in the children.

Growth Mindset "The hallmark of successful individuals is that they love learning, they seek challenges, they value effort, and they persist in the face of obstacles" Carol Dweck 2000

Sanctions Warnings Time-out Reflections Letters home We always try to stay positive but there must be clear boundaries in place and sanctions for children who push the boundaries. Children have time out to reflect on behaviours with the expectations that they will not behave in the same way again. Where appropriate, parents are informed of behaviours.
