We believe thinking matters. We have created a practical, evidence based approach to cognitive education. It combines training educators in “how to” pedagogy, with advice to leadership teams on transforming their organisations so that explicit thinking and continual self improvement is at the centre of everything they do. This is the cornerstone of being a successful Thinking School.
Across the globe, through training educators to use a pedagogy which enables students to master a range of thinking skills and intelligent learning behaviours, our unique, whole school approach results in organisations that forge independent thinkers and learners who develop the attitudes and dispositions to succeed in an ever-changing future.
