Tallowood School
What is our Philosophy?
Tallowood is founded on the belief that all children are individuals with common needs for both security and challenge in their environment.
This is best accomplished in a school environment which is safe and happy, and where there is the expectation that all children will learn, true self esteem will grow.
School's history
School Philosophy
We believe that:
Staff
Learning is a natural life long process
Every child is unique with different talents and needs.
All people need to experience success to prosper.
Involvement in planning and true decision making helps retain the enthusiasm for learning.
Learning needs to be authentic. By this we mean that students need to see the relevance of what they are learning.
Self management and self determination require an understanding of the concepts of respect, rights, responsibilities, choices and consequences.
An appreciation of sustainable environmental concepts is necessary for a future
Tolerance and respect for all other people is an important part of education.
Physical, emotional, social and spiritual development cannot be divorced from academic achievement.
