High Performance Learning

High Performance Learning (HPL) helps good schools become world class through a sharp focus on optimising teaching and learning.

Become an accredited High Performance Learning school by adopting the HPL of seeing everyone as a future high performer and using the HPL framework for teaching and learning to achieve this goal. A social enterprise based on the research work of Professor Deborah Eyre, we believe all students - whatever their background - could potentially be high performers. We are building a critical mass of education professionals who are using the HPL framework to make this a reality.
