Become a member of the Thinking Schools Network
The Thinking Schools Network (TSN) is a member driven organisation and facilitates the sharing of best practice in developing metacognitive learners. Discover the benefits of membership:
Schools in the Network:
- Seek to transform the life chances of their pupils beyond academic grade attainment. They use scientific evidence to inform their teaching practice and as the basis for future proofing their pupils.
- Subsequently, schools in the TSN take an explicit, whole school, cognitive approach to educating.
- All staff of schools in the TSN consciously seek to develop not only their own, but their pupils’ cognitive capabilities and intelligent learning behaviours. Their aim is to develop independent, metacognitive learners so that they know how to optimise their own potential and have the tools to determine their own futures.
