Tumuaki of St Clair primary on their school's use of modern learning

The New Zealand Initiative released a report this morning about the ineffectiveness of modern learning environments. 

According to the report, there's no proof that modern learning environments accomplish anything. 

This report has generated a lot of discussion, and here to contribute is St Clair Primary Tumuaki (principal), Jen Rodgers. St Clair primary uses a teaching method referred to as "flexible learning".

 "It gives us flexibility, it's in that name. It enables teachers to teach in a way that suits the moment. It enables children to have autonomy or agency over where they work, who they work with, when they work, whether it's alone or with other people. It gives everyone flexibility."
