Dispositions lie at the heart of lifelong learning — curiosity, perseverance, collaboration, courage, and empathy are what empower children to thrive across all areas of the curriculum. But while many teachers can recognise these qualities in children’s play and interactions, the next step is knowing how to intentionally nurture and extend them.
