The staff at Baldivis Secondary College adhere to the following principles of teaching and learning in their day to day work with students.
Teaching and Learning at Baldivis Secondary College must be:
Engaging
The teaching and learning process is most effective when all community members interact and learn from one another. The technologies and instructional practices must be appropriate for the learners’ level of prior knowledge, cognitive abilities, and their learning and thinking strategies.
Relevant and Meaningful
The teaching and learning process is most effective when it is applicable to the real world and prepares individuals for life at and beyond school.
Organised, Inclusive and Safe
The teaching and learning environment is most effective when all community members have developed and established a structured and trustful learning environment. The sharing of ideas and active participation in the learning process creates the learning community.
Respectful
The teaching and learning environment is most effective when all community members accept responsibility for their own actions and progress, and consequently are courteous, cooperative, and non-threatening in their relationships with others.
