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.

What will you learn?

Join us for this thought-provoking webinar where we’ll explore how to move from noticing dispositions to designing curriculum that truly grows them. You’ll:

  • See real examples of dispositions in action across a range of ECE contexts.
  • Learn to recognise the rich, complex learning happening beneath children’s everyday play.
