Growth Mindset and GRIT are a big part of our learning. We have been revisiting the difference between a Growth Mindset and a Fixed Mindset. All aspects of Our Positive Education Model need Growth mindset and GRIT. So what does that look like on a day to day basis ?
Our students feeling empowered to take on difficult tasks, maintaining a positive attitude in the face of adversity, and continuously striving towards their goals, both in school and in life.
Along with learning about emotions, Grit helps children manage frustration and stress and instead, learning to stay calm and keep trying. Everyone needs a little reminding and encouraging when they face difficult situations or failure. Please help us on this quest and encourage your child to notice when they have dialled up their GRIT or Growth mindset. These times are worth celebrating and great authentic opportunities to learn and develop these skills.
The combination of these two traits encourages a strong work ethic, a positive attitude toward learning, and an understanding that success is earned through effort and perseverance—not just innate ability.
