At Oak Flats High School we encourage and support all students to aspire, achieve and succeed. We seek to identify and cater for the needs of students who are commitment to and assume responsibility for their own learning in order to achieve their best educational outcomes. One way in which we do this is by providing opportunity for students to nominate themselves for the Motivated Learners Class.
CRITERIA
Motivated Learners are recognised as students who demonstrate the following attributes:
• Positive Attitude Motivated Learner students will be highly motivated with a desire to extend themselves and to achieve the best possible outcomes.
• Good Behaviour Motivated Learner students will follow all rules, be cooperative and will encourage the learning of others.
• Excellent Class Work Motivated Learner students will complete all set work, including homework and extension work, thus maximising their learning opportunities.
• Extra-Curricular Activities Motivated Learner students will participate in a variety of school based extra- curricular activities that support their learning opportunities in the classroom
Each semester, students in Motivated Learners classes will be subject to review in relation to these criteria. Students not meeting the criteria will be withdrawn from the Motivated Learners Class.
RESPONSIBILITY OF OAK FLATS HIGH SCHOOL
Oak Flats High School and its teachers will develop a positive learning environment by providing extension opportunities that strengthen the learning of Motivated Learners students. This will involve participation in additional activities such as master classes, workshops, community projects and competitions.
