Our Philosophy of Education
Our Philosophy of Education is based on the principles of ‘Growth Mindset Learning’(C. Dweck Ph.D).
All learners at Grendon are here to “grow their brains.” The word ‘Yet’ is very important to our philosophy because there is much we all cannot do yet, but with determination, commitment and perseverance, we can fire the neurons in our brain to embed new skills.
We are ready to make mistakes in our learning because, we could not grow our brains on a continual diet which requires low effort, so expect challenging tasks. Our learners show humility and grit in all they do.
