Insight

Insight, based on the science of learning and reading, encompasses how we teach in every classroom. This teaching approach empowers all educators to help their students grow in knowledge, wisdom and service.

Our Insight Project has one single objective: to improve the learning achievement of every student in our schools. Decades of research now tell us that we improve student learning by helping teachers become even more effective in their daily teaching practice.

The Insight project focuses on improving the three key foundations of teaching and learning:

  • A comprehensive, knowledge-rich Curriculum: that supports students’ growth in learning, knowing and remembering - every day
  • Cognitive Science (the Science of Learning): Developing our understanding of how people learn; to overcome the limits of working memory to maximise student learning and to build long-term memory in all key subjects
  • High-impact Pedagogy: Regular and intensive coaching to assist our educators in actively applying the science of learning as we design highly efficient and effective teaching and learning methods in the classroom

We firmly believe the Insight project will serve the growth of our students as they understand the communal knowledge needed to function and flourish in society and build on their prior knowledge to respond in critical and creative ways to real-world problems and daily life challenges.
