A culture of Learning can be best described as one which focuses on the learning needs of the children, rather than being preoccupied with the academic goals the teachers or school administration want to achieve.

The concept may sound simple. However, it is complex.

Today, most schools function with a teaching culture – where the emphasis is on teaching students to prepare them for an upcoming exam. There is no emphasis on ensuring that the Student has learnt the topic or is able to comprehend the intricacies of the subject he is learning.

In a teaching driven culture, the conversations revolve around evaluations, testing and reforming the student.

How do we create a culture of learning in schools?

If we really want to establish a culture of learning in schools, it is essential to
transform the conversations in school from the teacher to the student. Teachers are essential in the role they play, but for a learning culture, schools need to shift their energy towards creating tools that will ensure that all students are reaching their potential.
