Learning Framework
Building Learning Power
At Edmund Rice College, our students are immersed in relevant, dynamic learning and an atmosphere of high-quality teaching.
Our framework Building Learning Power enables students to become lifelong learners. Our students learn to be tenacious, resourceful, imaginative and logical, self-disciplined, self-aware, collaborative and inquisitive.
We cultivate habits and attitudes that enable our students to become better leaners, face challenges and uncertainty calmly, confidently and creatively. We see our students develop greater concentration and focus, deeper thinking and an enjoyment of learning.
