“Almost all young people are motivated to learn and behave well in class. They are keen to answer their teachers’ questions and enjoy working in lessons. Young people respond particularly well when they are engaged actively in their learning, including when they participate in volunteering activities and in the wider community. Young people are encouraged to take responsibility for their learning, for example through investigations and research topics.”
