The huge changes taking place in education throughout New Zealand are not just isolated to our country. This shift or move to what the Ministry of Education initially called MLE's or modern learning environments but has now more accurately been coined ILE or innovative learning environment, has been rippling throughout schools around the world. With all this change, comes a lot of confusion. Many parents and even teachers are grappling with the new jargon/terms and even the purpose for the change to teaching practice and a new way of learning for our tamariki.
This video is a fantastic resource by some of our leading educators worldwide, that supports and explains what an innovative learning environment is, what changes you can expect and most importantly - why.
Take a moment to watch this and consider what they are saying. I found what they were describing to be hugely inspiring and motivating and as a mother, this is exactly what I wish for my child's education.
It gives me great hope and excitement about our journey to create an innovative learning environment at our kura and about the kind of amazing tamariki that innovative learning systems will no doubt produce!
