Growth Mindset

At Abbey, we have a curriculum that is ideal for developing positive mindsets in our children. Growth Mindset is a belief that with work, perseverance, you can improve any skill.

What is Growth Mindset?

A growth mindset is a belief that basic abilities are not fixed and that intelligence can be developed over time. Through effort and determination, intelligence and basic qualities can grow.

Fixed Mindset – People with fixed mindsets will only tackle tasks which they know, in advance, they will succeed at.

Growth Mindset – People with a growth mindset not only willingly tackle difficult tasks, but thrive on them.

At Abbey, we aim to develop a growth mindset for all staff, for parents, governors and learners themselves.
