Integrated Inquiry

​At Clifton Springs Primary School, we believe that learning grows out of students’ natural curiosities to question the world.
 
Through Integrated Inquiry units of learning, students expand their knowledge of themselves and the world, developing their understandings, skills and behaviours. Teachers plan each unit of work in stages allowing students to have input into the direction of each unit of work and their learning outcomes. 
The inquiry framework adopted at CSPS takes learners through the phases of tuning in, finding out, sorting out, going further, drawing conclusions and reflecting and acting.
Each Inquiry is guided by a Big Question and several supporting questions. These questions direct the learning experiences of the class and any independent learning that students may undertake. An Inquiry unit will typically begin with immersion experiences, which are designed to spark student interest and to get them excited about the upcoming learning. Students then spend time building their knowledge about key facts, ideas and concepts. After this, students either choose an area for further investigation (by developing their own question to pursue) or are given choice in the way they undertake and present further learning, based on a task that has been outlined.
