Principal Our beliefs about children and learning Children's understanding takes a lot of time. They need many opportunities and experiences in a variety of ways to construct knowledge. We do not expect all children to notice the same things or come to the same levels of understanding. We respect and celebrate individual differences. Furthermore, we believe that all children can learn.
Children learn at different rates.
Children learn by doing and by trial and error. Children should be treated with respect. Children should be given choices. We believe that children develop self-confidence by providing them with successful school experiences. We believe it is far better to teach children self control rather than trying to control them.
