Profound Learning

Profound Learning is an empowerment model of learning that elevates student learning to heights not achievable using the traditional ‘command and control’ industrial age model of education. Allowing students to take control of and responsibility for their own learning has proven to increase motivation and the effectiveness of learning. Along with high academic excellence, the Profound Learning model prepares students for their future with a focus on innovation and creativity.

Profound Learning is a system of education where the vast majority of students achieve academic excellence, not the few. Where student motivation with learning skyrockets as they engage in meaningful learning experiences. Where students, teachers and parents experience a level of joy not possible in the traditional command and control system. Where students are prepared with Future Ready skills essential for the world of tomorrow.

Profound Learning is a model for education that can be viewed as a ‘three-layered cake’ with student Ownership as the foundational layer, followed by Mastery and Innovation. The fourth layer, which focuses on the development of Future Ready skills, is the icing on the top as well as flowing between the other three layers.
