Responsible Learning & Study Skills at Burnham Grammar School
Burnham Grammar School, its staff and students, recognise the key importance of developing both students’ capacities to learn and their study skills to enable them to take advantage of the learning opportunities they experience and to act on the personalised assessment and feedback that they receive.
The school aims to develop Responsible Learners and therefore all lessons at Burnham Grammar School should aim to encourage students to be Responsible Learners. The emphasis in lessons being on developing students’ learning processes, habits and skills. This is a key aspect of learning and teaching to enable students to fulfil and surpass their potential.
Through developing our students’ ability to be effective Responsible Learners, we are equipping them with the skills, attitude and confidence to embrace challenge across the curriculum, and to progress from their mistakes through reflection upon their personal learning process.
