Highly effective practice in promoting independent and reflective learners.

Recent opportunities to observe effective practice in developing pupil independence have had a positive impact on pedagogy and learning environments. Classrooms and outdoor areas are stimulating and well resourced, providing purposeful opportunities for pupils to develop independence and creativity. Nearly all staff use a broad range of effective strategies to engage, support, and challenge pupils to take responsibility for their learning. As a result, pupils are confident, self-motivated learners who assess and reflect on their work maturely to set accurate targets for improvement.
