Philosphy of Education

Behind every school and every teacher is a set of related beliefs – a philosophy of education – that influences what and how students are taught.  A philosophy of education seeks to represent answers to questions about the purpose of schooling, a teacher’s role, and what should be taught and by what methods.

 

The Anglican Schools Corporation Philosophy of Education reflects our beliefs about why, what and how we seek to teach, and about the nature of learning in the Corporation’s schools. It is a set of principles that seeks to guide professional action through the events and issues that teachers face daily.

 

While we will not always succeed in operating our schools along these lines, the document sets out our aspirations for the way in which we approach teaching and learning.
