Building Learning Power

Building learning power is about helping young people to become better learners, both in school and out.

​
At Scoil Phobail Bhéara, we are proud to be a Building Learning Power School. It is about creating a culture in classrooms – and in the school more widely – that systematically cultivates habits and attitudes that enable young people to become better learners; face difficulty and uncertainty calmly, confidently and creatively.

Students who are more confident of their own learning ability learn faster and learn better. They concentrate more, think harder and find learning more enjoyable. They do better in their tests and external examinations. And they are easier and more satisfying to teach.

Building Learning Power prepares youngsters better for an uncertain future. Today’s schools need to be educating not just for exam results but for lifelong learning. To thrive in the 21st century, it is not enough to leave school with a clutch of examination certificates. Pupils/students need to have learnt how to be tenacious and resourceful, imaginative and logical, self disciplined and self-aware, collaborative and inquisitive.

Building students learning power is about:
  • Helping young people to help themselves become better learners
  • Developing students’ learning habits
  • Preparing young people for a lifetime of learning
