16 Habits of Mind - Persistence

Here we have Charlie in P4 talking so clearly about one of our 16 Habits of Mind – Persistence. At Ashgrove, our Habits of Mind help us all to become thoughtful, reflective and resilient learners. Persistence means keeping going even when something feels tricky and Charlie has shown exactly what that looks like in practice.

We think Charlie has done a wonderful job explaining and demonstrating persistence. His confidence, determination and ability to keep trying are a brilliant example for all our pupils. Well done, Charlie – we are so proud of you
