Carol Dweck - Growth Mindset TED talk
Follow this link to Carol Dweck's talk on Growth Mindset, filmed in November 2014
Carol Dweck researches “growth mindset” — the idea that we can grow our brain's capacity to learn and to solve problems. In this talk, she describes two ways to think about a problem that’s slightly too hard for you to solve. Are you not smart enough to solve it … or have you just not solved it yet? A great introduction to this influential field.'

Travel Survey - please complete and return to school
We are updating our Travel Plan, with our aim to reduce car-borne journeys to the school site, promote sustainable modes of transport and make the school site entrance as safe as possible. As part of this work, we would like to find out your views on the school journey. As well as talking to your children about their school journey, and asking them to think about the issues around their transport choices, we will also be consulting staff and governors. Please complete the questionnaire we sent home today and return it to the school office by Friday 13th December 2013. A copy of the questionnaire can be downloaded here.
