Skills For Learning - Skills For Life - Skills For Work
This project is carefully aligned to Curriculum for Excellence and the Scottish Attainment Challenge. During the project, children are engaging in experiences which are designed to give opportunities for every individual to develop the attitudes, skills and knowledge to be successful learners; confident individuals; responsible citizens and effective contributors.
The project aims to develop skills for learning, life and work within an authentic context.
The project design is centred on exploring community, building relationships and developing metacognition, self-regulation and feedback strategies. Opportunities to develop and apply aspects of literacy, numeracy and, in particular, health and well-being will be built into the sequence of linked learning experiences.

The toolkit provides an accessible summary of global educational research on the impact of interventions for 5 - 16 year olds. This is part of the support to education practitioners in Scotland and is designed to inform intervention and investment decision making to tackle inequity and to close the poverty-related attainment gap. |

A final thought on the project design...
Every project is designed to enable children to apply existing knowledge, deepen understanding and develop essential attitudes and skills. It takes an IDL (Interdisciplinary Learning) approach and places learners at the centre of the experience. Their thoughts, ideas and reflections will be incorporated as the project evolves - making each project unique to that group.
Let's bring the curriculum alive and make authentic connections across the areas of learning.
