Learning Logs are a unique personalised learning resource for children. In the Learning Logs, the children record their responses to learning challenges set by their teachers. Each log is a unique record of the child's thinking and learning.

Learning Logs The children are

given free licence to demonstrate their understanding of the target/s in a way that they find most suitable.

They have become an integral part of the curriculum and have had a major impact on our drive to develop a more independent learner.
