Welcome to the ninth episode of our specialist and supporting teachers series.  I’m super excited to talk more about the learner profile attributes.  This is one of the most underused tools alongside the approaches to learning in the IB programmes.  This is a bold statement to say, I know.

I’m just tired of people using the learner profile attributes as character traits.  They are SKILLS required to create a DISPOSITION. 

More than ever, we need young people who know how to think, feel, and act.  The only way that we will get them there is by using the language of the learner profile in our practice everyday.  You heard me, every single day.

Take a listen to one of my shortest, but equally powerful episodes of how to make the learner profile work for you as a specialist and supporting teacher.
