At Hyundai Foreign School we think Great Learning and Teaching is:
Engaging
Learners are actively involved in meaningful, stimulating learning
Engaging learning captures interest and encourages active participation. Learners are curious, focused and involved in the learning activity. They work together, ask questions and respond with enthusiasm. The classroom feels purposeful and lively.
Appropriate
Learners develop the knowledge and skills that matter for their lives and futures.
Appropriate learning builds on what learners already know and moves their thinking forward. It links to the curriculum, challenges all learners and connects with real life. Skills and knowledge are developed in ways that are relevant and meaningful.
Accessible
Every learner is supported to participate, progress and succeed.
Accessible learning includes everyone. Learning is adapted to meet different needs and gives all learners the chance to take part, grow in confidence and succeed. Support is thoughtful, inclusive and based on strong relationships.
