How are our students encouraged to feel positively about themselves as learners at GSPS?   How are our students encouraged to think hard?  How are our students encouraged to be active participants in the learning process? Granville South PS 2011
Are our students engaging in rich, authentic learning?  Do they know the purpose of the learning and why it's important?        Is there an element of choice? Are students active in directing their learning?   Are there opportunities for them to articulate their thinking? Granville East, 2015
How are we fostering inquiry learning skills for our students? Are there opportunities for our students to pose and explore their own questions about their learning? How are our students being supported (and extended) to investigate and organise information and ideas? Are our students collaborating and communicating their understandings and ideas in the inquiry learning process? Sefton Infants 2017
​
How well are we engineering experiences so that our students develop confident self-identities and resilient behaviour so that they can express themselves successfully and interact cooperatively and respectfully?  Sefton Infants, 2016
