INQUIRY LEARNING

In learning through Inquiry, we are challenging our students to open their eyes and minds to new experiences; explore and question new information and collaborate to solve problems but most importantly to enhance their ability to learn in different ways.

​

Inquiry learning can take many forms, for example, integrated curriculum, issue/problem based, action led, negotiated or play based inquiry.

Inquiry is characterised by students:

• asking questions, building on prior knowledge and making their own discoveries

• finding out information from primary sources to answer generative questions and develop deep conceptual understandings

• making connections between ideas, learning domains and experiences.
