Synopsis

Personalizing learning is the hot topic on everyone s education agenda. It is seen to be the way forward to get the very best out of every child and it forms the focus of this timely new book. Personalizing learning is seen as a powerful solution to reforming our current education system in order to meet individual learning needs and thereby raise standards. Where current thinking has personalizing learning in the secondary sector, the author argues that for personalizing learning to be successful, children must start making real choices about their learning from the earliest age and must be guided and coached through their primary years rather than being taught in the traditional way.

This volume will challenge the schools' thinking about how they teach; encourage schools to put the learner at the heart of the educational agenda; and support primary schools in their work to meet this challenge. It considers all aspects of learning and teaching in the primary school; and provides useful questions for the reader to consider their own working practices in the context of personalizing learning.

This book comes packed full with practical ideas that have been tried and tested in a real school and have proved popular with staff, parents and pupils. It considers all aspects of learning and teaching in the primary school and provides useful questions for the reader to consider their own working practices in the context of personalizing learning.
