Shiplake College is a proud member of the global Thinking Schools Network. These schools take an explicit, evidence-informed approach to developing pupils’ thinking skills, placing metacognition at the heart of pupils’ academic experience.
Mr Paul Jones, Deputy Head Academic, and Mr Sam Shaw, Assistant Head Academic, provide an overview of the global Thinking School network and how Shiplake College is working towards accreditation as a Thinking School with Exeter University. The Parents' Guide explains more about what this means, and what this looks like at Shiplake College.
