Inspiring Hearts and Minds: The HighScope Approach

Dr. David Weikart

The HighScope Approach is an educational philosophy centred on Active Participatory Learning, where children construct their own knowledge through hands-on experiences, exploration and meaningful interactions.

Explore the history and principles of this well-established pedagogy and how you can apply them in your own practice and provision. You'll discover the five core pillars that underpin the HighScope framework—active learning, adult-child interaction, the learning environment, daily routine and assessment—and consider how they work together to support children's learning and development.

Whether you're based in a nursery, preschool, school or work as a childminder, the HighScope Approach offers an accessible, evidence-informed framework that can be adapted to a wide range of early years settings, helping every child to become an active, engaged and confident learner.
