In a world of rapidly changing knowledge which requires new and transferable skills, classrooms are increasingly being viewed as places where pupils learn how to learn. In order to help pupils develop new skills, teachers must encourage them to work independently and manage themselves as learners. Learning for Themselves offers teachers a repertoire of effective strategies and frameworks to nurture independent learning. The chapters are organised into four broad areas: learning preferences thinking inquiry personal challenges. Each section includes learning tasks covering commonly addressed topics in primary school curriculums, with each task designed to be adapted by students and teachers to suit particular interests and a range of teaching and learning goals. Photocopiable learning proformas for each task, and additional proforma resources are included to assist teachers and pupils when planning, managing, monitoring and keeping records associated with independent learning. Saving valuable planning time for teachers, this book offers a creative and effective way to encourage pupil's independence and will appeal to all teachers who aim to equip their pupils with transferable skills.

This book argues that independence in the classroom should be seen as beneficial for learners and also for teachers. Jill Williams makes a compelling case for a climate in which decision making is valued, where children are enabled to solve problems and where children and adults respect each others point of view, arguing that this will be a climate in which independence flourishes. In turn the benefits in terms of teaching and learning will be apparent for both the children and the teachers.

St John's School and Community College in Wiltshire made headline news this year. In challenging old ideas about homework and the National Curriculum, St. John's has developed its own integrated curriculum based on: - learning to learn - managing information - managing situations - relating to people - global citizenship - a curriculum designed to equip learners with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in the real world. The success of this new approach has resulted in: - improved academic progress - better behaviour - greater learning opportunities - increased confidence - more responsible learners. Nurturing Independent Thinkers is both a practical guide to the implementation of the ‘St John's curriculum' and a realistic account of the journey taken by the staff and students involved.
