How do we nurture intrinsic motivation at TCS? The secret is understanding its ties with Self-Determination Theory.

How does Self-Efficacy Theory tie in with raising courageous learners? What does it mean to be courageous?

Compassion, at TCS, is more than just a feeling; it's a guiding principle shaping how we interact and build community. Cultivating compassion is fundamental to creating a kind, inclusive, and supportive learning environment. We achieve this by helping students understand Attribution Theory, which explores how we explain the causes of behavior – our own and that of others.

Over the coming weeks, we'll unpack each of our core values. This week, we explore how curiosity empowers learners to embrace a growth mindset. A growth mindset creates a safe space for children to ask questions, express their thoughts, and nurture their natural inquisitiveness. By promoting open-mindedness and a love of learning, a growth mindset empowers children to become joyful, intrinsically motivated explorers.
