At MBS we are very passionate to see every learner grow in both their awareness of agency and also their ability to have agency in everything they do.

- The student also having an ‘interdependent’ relationship with others - both their teachers and their peers.
- The student having an awareness that their decisions impact on them, others and their peers.
