Teachers.
“Through observation and informal assessment of the children it was obvious that the children were developing thinking skills and their ability to solve the problems they were facing.”

|
“ Reading levels went up. Children’s spellings improved. Speaking and listening improved.” “I saw a dramatic improvement in children with special educational needs.” |
Headteachers, Principals.
“Both teachers and children find it easier to make connections in their learning. This led to much more involvement and enjoyment from the children.”

“It gave the opportunity for children to explore an area in depth. As a result of this, children attained levels in Maths and Science that were much higher than expected for Year 4.”

Parents.
“The children are learning and retaining facts without realising. It makes the whole learning experience fun and interesting.” “He has never been happier and so settled in school.” |
We as a family feel that as a result of the wonderful investigative and creative activities prepared by staff, our children have become more independent learners. They are extremely keen to discuss their findings. Many people have commented on their recall of facts.”

“I would be supportive of this being implemented in children’s education as it gets them thinking of their own ideas and how they can work on their own leaving them feeling a sense of achievement.”
