Sometimes it takes the
right setting with the
right resources to let
people feel comfortable
enough to learn how to
learn – and to soar.
The new Learning Forum centres at TFS – at
La p'tite école, the Junior School and the West
Campus – and the soon-to-be-unveiled Learning
Forum at the Senior School, bring together all
of the elements to create ideal environments
where students can learn together or individually,
in specially designed and designated areas,
including the much-requested silent zone at
the Senior School.
These learning hubs are places where students
can seek support for obstacles to learning at
any age and in any subject area, with help from
learning strategists or guidance counsellors.
They can conduct research and discover resource
materials, whether in the digital classroom or
through the school's curated library collection.
Students can even delve into the school's storied
past through its archives.

Says Dr. Susan Elliott, Executive Director of the
Learning Forum, "it's deepening the connection
students have to the space and its programs. Our
foot traffic has increased significantly! Our teams
work collaboratively, with a spirit of inquiry, and
new ideas for better learning and teaching come
from everywhere and everyone."
