At Ferguson Intermediate school, learner agency is promoted using Project - Based Learning as a learning tool to enable learners to think critically, evaluate information and communicate well. This is a 'student driven and teacher facilitated approach' (Bell, 2010) driven through inquiry learning.
"Students are given explicit instruction in learning strategies (such as goal setting, self-monitoring and deliberate practice) that enable them to take control of their learning, develop meta-cognitive skills, self-regulate, and develop self-efficacy and agency." ERO School Evaluation Indicators Domain 4
Agency is having the power or capacity to act and make choices. In a learner-centred environment, learners have agency over their learning.
