1. Growth Mind set at St Bon’s

3. Carol Dweck and her colleagues became interested in students' attitudes about failure.
They noticed that some students rebounded while other students seemed devastated by even the smallest setbacks.
After studying the behaviour of thousands of children, Dr. Dweck coined the terms fixed mind-set and growth mind-set to describe the underlying beliefs people have about learning and intelligence.
When students believe they can get smarter, they understand that effort makes them stronger.

5. At St Bon’s
We want children to leave St Bon’s with a growth mind-set towards their learning and their lives. We want children to recognise that their brain can change and grow. We want them to recognise that learning is a journey and that everyone tackles the journey at a different pace.
