The Learning

Revolution @Taylors CollegeThe landscape or learning has changed

tremendously over the years. Students are

no longer obliged to constrain themselves

to acquiring knowledge rom sources

within the scheduled lessons and romtheir teachers. Learning is revolutionised

with the development o more and

more sophisticated technology, making

inormation and knowledge accessible

anytime, anywhere, catering to the dierent

learning styles and needs o individuals.

At Taylors College, this is the essence o

our learning experience. Teachers arelearning acilitators; students are geared to

become lielong learners who take pride and

ownership in their learning success. Learning

is no longer conned within the our walls

o a classroom but at The Learning Spaces

where students are ree to learn with and

rom one another. This is learning at Taylors.

This is the Taylors Learning Revolution.

The Taylors Placement Centre is key to ensuring students receive the right inormationabout universities. This includes the timing o applications and amiliarity with the nuanceso the application system to ensure a smooth application process. Many students romTaylors College have come to study at The University o Sheeld. Many o them have been

successul in obtaining not only their rst degree; some have been able to secure places ora PhD. I think it goes without saying that students are given a good oundation to continueonto university.
