We Can Manage Ourselves

Admin Cashmere —

Year 5 and 6 children have agency* in their learning. They can make their own decisions about how to manage their own learning. They manage this in different ways.

They write the script for assembly, they plan their learning week.

Check out some of our strategies:

*Learner Agency

Learner agency is about having the power, combined with choices, to take meaningful action and see the results of your decisions. It can be thought of as a catalyst for change or transformation. Within a school context, Learner Agency is about shifting the ownership of learning from teachers to students, enabling students to have the understanding, ability, and opportunity to be part of the learning design and to take action to intervene in the learning process, to affect outcomes and become powerful lifelong learners.
