We Value Student Voice and Cater For Individual Learning Needs!

Why is it important for students to have a voice? Children spend a lot of time at school. ... While listening to student voice is important, research shows that the benefits for students don't come from just hearing their own voices; it's more about how other people (students, teachers, schools) respond to students' voices and work with them to make ideas come to life.

And we all know this doesn't 'just happen'.......Room 19 and 19A students have been working really hard together to build the foundations of a positive, collaborative working environment. For this to be successful we have to develop the skills required.  We communicate and each group member has a role e.g, project manager, noice control, recorder, implementer, co-ordinator, resource investigator, specialist and team worker.  We also have a choice of how we would like to present our work. Digitally or in our books.  We have been introduced to five different digital tools so far as a way for us to present our work.  By having this choice we feel like we can be really creative and inspiring to others. We also get to reflect on our learning and share our work with our parents. Self reflection is really hard because it makes us think a lot and we have to use the correct language.
