By developing \u2018The Cambridge Learner Attributes\u2019 students will gain the ability to get involved.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Education is about so much more than passing an exam. Through years of development, students gain knowledge and learn about what is needed to successfully cope in our world, embracing all things it has to offer, along with\u00a0 the obstacles it may throw their way and the challenges it demands. Learning and growing happens in the home and at school(a students\u2019 second home). If we take away the hours of sleep, students actually spend more time at school with teachers and peers than they do with their parents. School takes up a major part of a child\u2019s life.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

From a child’s perspective, school, extracurricular activities and home are part of the continuous experience of life. From the perspective of teachers and parents, those experiences may seem more differentiated and are thus treated separately. However, if the adults in a child\u2019s life approach his or her growth as a collaboration following a clear developmental path, every child will have a better chance at a life filled with choices and the skills to achieve goals and the confidence to try new things.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"As educators we must put more emphasis on holistic learning, than merely academics.\u00a0 We would like to see our students involved in or at least try a variety of activities, such as individual or team sport, fitness, music, art, drama, clubs, CCAs and so forth. Our goal is for our students to become extremely well rounded, so they are able to broaden horizons that await. By having the confidence to try new things, life can become more interesting. Joining\u00a0 in on activities with others is much better than being left on the sidelines to watch.<\/span><\/p>\n

To conquer this, students need to gain many positive attributes. They need to become confident, responsible, responsive, respectful, reflective and innovative. They also must become problem solvers and analytical thinkers with the 21st Century skills necessary\u00a0 to persevere through the future challenges they may face. We won\u2019t always be there to keep watch, so when it is time for them to leave, we need the peace of mind that they have the skills to survive and the integrity to do the right thing, even when none of us are there to help or watch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
