We want our junior children to understand Maslow's Triangle and that to be the best version of yourself, to self-actualize, you need to be able to self-care and say kind things, appreciative things about yourself. To that end, Junior pupils are asked to say one I am, one I can and one I have sentence about themselves everyday. Imagine how much more resilient they will be, how much stronger their self-belief will be if they say something nice to themselves daily. Go on, ask them to!
Quiteenees and Quitonians are family. They are brothers and sisters. Junior pupils are the infant pupils big brothers and big sisters. Pupils love to excel, they love to excel but they equally love to celebrate the achievements of their brothers and sisters. We are a school built on kindness and love. To be the best version of yourself, to self-actualize, we all need recognition from others, we all need genuine, heart-felt praise.
Providing pupils with the best possible oracy skills is a crucial objective for Quilters' Schools. In each year, pupils are taught to explain, discuss and debate with increasing skill. The use of sentence stems and an insistence on using standard English at the correct times is key to this. Their oracy skills will, we hope, wow future employers.
