Inquiry-based learning helps to support the 5 key needs of the adolescent brain identified within the IMYC, as inquiry allows students to be able to make meaning of their learning, make connections and have active involvement in their learning. It also allows our students to truly embrace our school’s educational philosophy, by ensuring they are ready for tomorrow’s world, have an enquiring mind and thirst for knowledge. In addition, our student profile recognises that VIS students are both knowledgeable and inquisitive, which are attributes strongly promoted within an inquiry-based approach.
