Quality teacher interactions
Research shows that purposeful adult interactions with children creates the best outcomes. A skilled practitioner can recognise the learning outcomes of an activity and supports and extends through sensitive interaction (scaffolding).
Research based
Research shows that a balance of child initiated, and playful adult focused activities provide the best learning outcomes for children.
Learning through play and enquiry
Play is how a child researches the world. Children learn through experiential activities. Play will allow children to practice, embed and make their learning visible.
Neural pathways
Children learn in a holistic way and are not aware of subjects. Making links helps lay down the brain neural pathways. A child may be meeting many learning outcomes from one activity.
Motivated life long learners
A child who is interested to learn, will work at a higher level, and challenge themselves. This is when deep level learning will take place.
Outdoor Learning
More than just physical exercise. Outdoor play allows children to explore new ideas on a larger scale and experience the world around them to make their learning relevant and exciting.
Parent Partnerships
Parents are a child’s first educator. The link with home is vital as children will often display new learning in the home context.
We want Ivy children to be:
happy and emotionally secure
well behaved and respectful
reaching or exceeding potential (academically and personally)
lifelong learners with strong habits of learning
citizens of the world who are prepared for an unknown future
use 21st century skills (critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity…)
prepared for future schooling with basic concepts and skills
and much more ——
