SEN Thinking Skills and Personal Capabilities
On this page
At the heart of the Northern Ireland Curriculum lies an explicit emphasis on the development of Thinking Skills and Personal Capabilities.
- Developing thinking skills means designing learning so that learners will think more skilful than they would otherwise do.
- Developing the personal capabilities means creating opportunities for learners to experiment with ideas, take initiative, learn from mistakes, work collaboratively and become more self-directed in their learning.
