The network differentiates itself by offering a global, interconnected education rather than standalone schools, with a consistent curriculum and campus-wide resources across cities. Its goal is to prepare students to succeed in a globally connected world by developing interdisciplinary thinking, language fluency, and problem-solving abilities.

Nord Anglia Education Expands Metacognition Research Into Early Years With 'Flag Time' Project

Nord Anglia's latest research explores how allocating structured reflection time helps young children develop independence and self-awareness.LONDON, March 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading international schools group Nord Anglia Education has launched 'Flag Time', a new research project focused on metacognition—the process through which children understand how they think and learn best—in early years education (ages 3-6).The research involving 21 Nord Anglia schools explores how structured moments of reflection can allow young children to assess their own learning.Founded and led by Dr Anne Baldisseri, Head of School at Avenues São Paulo, Flag Time is a 20-minute daily classroom routine where students engage in targeted tasks designed to build on their strengths, support areas for development, and improve their self-awareness.Teachers place a flag with each child's name and picture in a part of the classroom where a specially chosen task is waiting. Each day, children work individually, or in groups with others who share an interest or need to develop the same skill. For example, a teacher may use a student's interest in adventure to develop their maths skills by having them use magnifying glasses to find and solve as many maths problems as possible—hidden in pictures of adventure locations before the timer rings.These tasks are tailored to each child's interests and learning needs. At the end of Flag Time, students reflect on their progress and set personal learning goals—building a habit of continuous improvement from the earliest years.Key research objectives of the Flag Time research project include understanding how:Promoting self-regulated learning encourages young children to reflect on their progress and set learning goals.Enhancing student independence and confidence helps early learners take an active role in their education.Dr Anne Baldisseri said: "Research shows that metacognition plays a critical role in student success, yet its application in early childhood education remains underexplored. Flag Time provides young learners with the structure and language to reflect on their thinking, understand their own strengths, interests, and needs, and make intentional choices about their learning. By embedding these practices into daily routines, we are nurturing self-awareness, independence, and a foundation for lifelong learning."Dr Kate Erricker, Group Head of Education Research at Nord Anglia Education, said: "By embedding reflection, choice, and self-assessment into everyday routines, Flag Time is equipping our youngest learners with the skills to think deeply, learn independently, and approach challenges with confidence."The research findings will be published by Nord Anglia in the summer of 2025, including recommendations for how teachers can integrate metacognitive strategies into early years learning.Flag Time is Nord Anglia's third metacognition research project, following its metacognition research project with Boston College, which launched in 2023 and examines how metacognitive strategies enhance student learning across Nord Anglia's global network of schools

Nord Anglia Education Publishes New Insights On The Role Of Ai And Metacognition In Learning

LONDON, May 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- INSIGHTS, the global publication from Nord Anglia Education, has published two new articles taking an in-depth look at AI in education and the role of metacognition in teaching and learning.Exploring the role of AI in learninghttps://www.nordangliaeducation.com/insights/2024/articles/the-generative-generationIn its 'Generative Generation' feature, INSIGHTS explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in education, and whether the technology is making it easier for children to learn. Speaking to Nord Anglia's educators as well as leading experts from the world of academia, it also includes real-life examples of how Nord Anglia's schools are using AI in the classroom.For example, Nord Anglia's British International School in Kuala Lumpur has adapted the technology to create an AI-powered teaching assistant that can personalise learning, guide students through content exploration, and deepen their understanding through interactive activities. Learners define the topic they want to explore and the course specification they are working to, and the AI explores the content with them in a conversational way, enabling them to ask questions as they go.Dr Bruce Geddes, Deputy Head of Secondary at the school, told INSIGHTS that AI represents "the biggest opportunity we've had in our lifetimes, for many, many spheres, but particularly in education".Avenues: The World School in New York, which became part of Nord Anglia in 2023, encourages its students to use AI in their work. As an example, in an app development project students use ChatGPT to generate the bulk of the coding, then review, correct and refine it. This saves them "hours of manual work by leveraging the appropriate tool in an academically appropriate way," says Lia Muschellack, Director of Technology at the school.The school also has its own generative AI chatbot, Savvy, built in 2019 and now powered by open AI technology. It can answer queries, provide information, and engage in "diverse discussions ranging from academic topics to casual conversations"."We understand that our students will be actively leveraging these tools throughout their academic and professional pathways, so we want to make sure they not only understand the potentials and limitations, but that they have tinkered and truly experienced them," Muschellack explains.Metacognition: a learning superpowerIn its feature 'Metacognition
