What we say

Our Principles

We believe that education allows people to develop a fulfilled and resilient life. Our work focuses on engaging school students with their learning so that they are ready for a lifetime of curiosity and continuous development. In our view, learners showing interest and engagement with the world around them is therefore the most important indicator of a successful learning environment.

To make this happen, we focus on creating innovative learning materials that not only inspire students but also align with educational standards globally. We are also deeply committed to empowering teachers with the skills, resources, and workplace support structures needed to foster engaging and effective learning environments. In essence, our objective is to create an ecosystem where continuous learning and engagement are at the heart of education for all.

01 - 04

Our Engaged Learning Model of education is based on the hypothesis that learning is an active process, in which the learner is supported along a path of self-driven discovery.

To help us design and evaluate better education practice, we conside the model as a three-stage cycle of curiosity, engagement, and discovery.

02 - 04

Before a person can be engaged in active learning, it is vital that they already have an innate interest in applying themselves to the task of learning.

Therefore, the first objective of the educator is to stimulate curiosity in the learner, by preparing the learning environment, the narrative context, and the reward story.

03 - 04

Learner engagement is achieved when a person applies their maximum available capacity to the task of self-development.

The second objective of the educator is to focus and maintain the activity of the learner by providing learning materials, direct tuition, and collaboration tasks.

04 - 04

An effective education experience is one in which the learner has discovered something, whether: explicit—such as when learning a new concept; or implicit—like when consolidating prior understanding.

The third objective of the education is therefore to help the learner self-identify successful discovery through guided practice, formative assessment, and meta-cognition coaching.

The Engaging Education Code

The Engaging Education Code represents our ongoing journey to define and refine our educational beliefs. It's a flexible, evolving framework, reflective of our commitment to open-mindedness and adaptability in the face of new evidence and perspectives.

  1. Ignite Curiosity and Creativity: I integrate curiosity and creativity in my teaching, transforming learning into an active, imaginative journey accessible to all learners.
  2. Foster Collaboration and Inclusivity: I cultivate educational communities where collaboration is essential, and every person is included and valued, regardless of their background or abilities.
  3. Connect Learning with Life: I ensure that education is linked to real-life contexts, making learning pertinent and equipping learners for future challenges.
  4. Nurture Critical and Independent Thinking: I inspire learners to question, analyse, and think for themselves, fostering minds capable of innovation and problem-solving.
  5. Embrace and Drive Change: As a proactive member of an evolving educational community, I am dedicated to continually enhancing and updating teaching practices to keep them effective and relevant.

This Code guides how we operate as a charity and approach education, envisioned to evolve democratically through our Engaging Educators Network, a collaborative platform for educators, learners, and leaders. While not binding, it represents the ethos we strive to develop and embody in our educational practices.
