Article 29 - the goals of education.
Thu 06 Jan 2022
Happy New Year and welcome to the first Article of the Week of 2022! We're using the theme of New Year and the resolutions we sometimes make to revisit Article 29 which is all about the goals of education.
Education must develop every child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full. We hope our children will enjoy all of the activities which they will encounter as they will help us think about what they want to achieve this year and how can their education help them in this.
As well as being ambitious, it’s also important to be kind to ourselves in this process. So, classes will be kicking off the term with exploring the OutRight resources on mental health to support our learners.
