Advancing learning that appreciates beauty , pursues goodness and discerns truth
Design and implement a Scotch Teaching and Learning Framework
Scotch embraces a holistic approach to education , recognising that learning thrives in the complex interplay of people , place and pedagogies . At the heart of this is relational learning – the understanding that deep , meaningful learning emerges through relationships .
The quality of boys ’ learning experiences is deeply connected to the expertise of their teachers , as well as the trust , respect and dialogue that shape their interactions . In our context , learning experiences evoke wonder and reverence for the world around us , fostering connections that extend beyond the classroom . Our programs inspire an appreciation of the beauty of learning and instil a respect for truth and the inherent dignity of each individual .
We will develop a Scotch Teaching and Learning Framework that encapsulates these fundamental principles and provides a unified school-wide language for teaching and learning .
Its implementation will be supported with targeted resources and ongoing professional learning opportunities for our staff .
As we continue to improve the learning experiences for our boys , ultimately , it is our desire that each boy is known , challenged , supported and well-positioned to shape a better future .
Improve our capacity to provide high-quality sporting experiences for all boys
Sport and physical activity is central to Scotch ’ s culture , and challenges boys to develop teamwork , resilience and good habits around caring for their bodies and minds .
To ensure our extensive sporting program offers opportunities for all boys to receive the expert coaching and training they need to excel , regardless of their chosen sport or level , we will be undertaking a comprehensive , external review . Key recommendations will be implemented in the coming years .
