At Hartland International School, we are proud to implement the High-Performance Learning (HPL) philosophy, a proven educational framework based on decades of research. HPL is built on the principle that every child has the potential to achieve at the highest levels with the right opportunities and support. By adopting this transformative approach, we aim to develop students who are intellectually confident, resilient, and globally minded.

Since formally embedding HPL in September 2023, this philosophy has shaped our curriculum, teaching strategies, and school culture, allowing students to flourish academically and personally.

High Performance Learning at Hartland

High Performance Learning is at the heart of Hartland’s curriculum. Starting in the Foundation Stage, students are introduced to essential values, attitudes, and attributes (VAAs) such as empathy, resilience, and collaboration, forming the foundation of their learning journey. As they progress through the Primary and Secondary Phases, the focus expands to developing advanced cognitive performance characteristics (ACPs), including critical thinking, problem-solving, and intellectual confidence. Lessons are thoughtfully designed to challenge students and encourage enquiry-based learning, ensuring that they are not only mastering subject knowledge but also applying it in meaningful, real-world contexts. This seamless integration of HPL across all phases of the school ensures that students grow into proactive, independent learners capable of thriving in any environment.

At Hartland, High Performance Learning is more than an educational philosophy—it is a commitment to unlocking the potential within every child, shaping tomorrow’s leaders.
