The Light of Learning Framework

Teaching, Learning and Assessment
The Light of Learning

We have worked with other OLOG trust schools to develop a Teaching Learning and Assessment Framework. Using research based evidence we have defined what excellent practices are in all areas and when you walk into every classroom at St Helen’s you will be able to see how these 10 chosen principles are in action for children every day.

Please see the link here to view our Teaching and Learning Framework called ‘The Light of Learning’.
