You’re Invited! - Inquiry Learning Information Evening Tauranga Boys' College
We are running a special information evening about our Year 9 and 10 Inquiry programme, and you’re invited.
Inquiry is a different pathway for junior students at TBC from mainstream and focuses on using project-based and student-directed learning. It’s a programme for students who want more choice in how they control their learning and caters for different learning styles. It covers all the same areas of the curriculum and its content is the same that mainstream does (English, Social Studies, Mathematics and Science), but delivers it in a more engaging and adaptive way to the learner.
The aim of the evening is for you and your son to get a better sense of what it’s like to learn in this programme by talking to some of our current students. Mr Brooks, Head of Inquiry will be on hand to answer all your questions.
