We use the High Performance Learning philosophy and framework in our school. This means that we believe that all the students can be high performers, and we teach with these expectations in mind. Using the research-based High Performance Learning approach helps us to systematically build the cognitive competencies that lead a young person to thrive in school and in later life. We embed the HPL philosophy throughout our school. We never tell our students they cannot achieve; it is just they are not there yet but, with practice and perseverance, it will happen. That is why we put much effort into embedding quality learning skills so that, at each stage, students have the intellectual tools to embrace the challenge and progress.
