Research Matters, Summer 2010 The evidence leads to the conclusion that learning about learning is a practically viable and educationally important strategy which also has the effect of improving performance. But learning-centred school improvement is less prevalent than might be envisaged from this evidence, because it remains in tension with the dominant discourse about classroom learning and with current policy interventions in England.

Research Matters, Summer 2010 A focus on learning can enhance performance, whereas a focus on performance alone can depress performance. Children who develop a ‘performance orientation’ rather than a ‘learning orientation’ tend to show greater helplessness, use less strategic thinking and be more focused on grade feedback. They are more likely to persevere with strategies that are not working.
