Personalisation

• To build a successful system of personalised
  learning, we must begin by acknowledging that
  giving every single child the chance to be the
  best they can be, whatever their talent or
  background, is not the betrayal of excellence, it
  is the fulfilment of it. Personalised learning
  means high quality teaching that is responsive to
  the different ways students achieve their best.
