Description

Encourage independent learning

Encouraging independent learning is essential. Not just in early school years but also for later working life. Independent learning is a study method. The child has no support from adults or supervisors. They learn to recognise what information is important to them. Developing independent learning is a valuable skill.

 

Encourage independent learning skills

‘Who’s in the driving seat’?

We created Who’s in the Driving Seat to encourage children’s independent learning skills. The course supports the teaching practitioner to consider how to help a child gain a greater level of independent learning. But also the effectiveness of current interventions. Creating an understanding for everyone in maximising independence. Want to see more about the professionals role? See our blog
