What is Growth Mindset?

Growth Mindset is a simple idea discovered by world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck – a simple idea that makes all the difference.

This year we will be encouraging all students to work towards developing a Growth Mindset. This Mindset will help students to understand that they don't give up when things get difficult, they persevere. They take risks, participate in class, and understand that mistakes are normal when people try hard things.

We anticipate that having a Growth Mindset will equip our students with resilience, a good work ethic and the belief that talents can be developed through hard work, good strategies, and input from others.
