Our Vision for Learning is a unified set of attributes for teaching and learning at all AngliSchools. It serves as a compass for our learning communities and articulates the attributes, qualities and transferable skills we seek to embed in our learners. These attributes will position our students to navigate and thrive through challenge and change, and contribute to the success and strengthening of their communities

The six attributes under the Vision for Learning are:

Collaborative

Sharing ideas respectfully, listening to others, working together to solve problems, and celebrating everyone’s success.

Purposeful

Doing your best, getting involved in positive activities, and taking charge of your own learning.

Inquisitive

Asking questions to learn more, trying new ways of thinking and solving problems, and using reasons to explain your ideas.

Inclusive

Feeling supported to learn and do well, recognising what makes you unique, and appreciating differences in others.

Courageous

Facing challenges head-on, taking responsibility for your choices, and keeping going even when things are tough.

Connected

Asking questions and getting involved in the world around you, caring about issues in your community and beyond, and understanding how your voice can make a difference.
