SOLE at Onchan
School
At Onchan School, we recognise and value
that children learn best when they drive and have ownership over
their learning. Our Learning Powers and Learning and Teaching
policy reflect our ethos for teaching and learning, “we expect
children to be actively involved in their learning. No two
children learn in the same way and as teachers we need to ensure
that we create opportunities to learn in ways which are creative,
imaginative, not transmissive (i.e. not didactic- teaching from
the front), hands on, dynamic, take account of new ways of
learning, are skills based and which come from the children’s
interests.” SOLE has proven to be an effective tool that
encourages teaching and learning to be done in such a way that
also runs in tandem with the Island’s statutory E4L
curriculum.
