We know that children who have a positive attitude towards their learning will make good progress and be successful.  Consequently, instilling all our pupils with 'growth mindsets' is a key priority for our children at Wherwell.  We want all our children to relish challenges, embrace their mistakes as part of the learning process, value the importance of effort, respond carefully to feedback and take inspiration from others.  This will help them to achieve, not only with us, but also in their future lives as adults.

Growth Mindset

The Learning Pit

All good learners should go into the learning pit.  Mistakes are part of the learning experience and deep learning is achieved when children are challenged with their learning.
