The Learning Forum was set up three years ago, to provide opportunities for discussion and dissemination of effective learning and teaching approaches. the schools involved have been exploring aspects such as: the use of music in learning; individual target-setting; thinking skills; sharing learning intentions with children; different ways of demonstrating understanding/reviewing learning; use of 'brain-breaks' to enhance concentration; strategies for developing children's responsibility and autonomy.

The Learning Forum meets at Craigavon Teacher's Centre, twice a term, from 2:30pm - 4:30pm.

Information about dates and topics for meetings is circulated to all schools through Board Post. This information will also be available on the Primary and Early Years homepage.
