GLOBAL COMPETENCIES
The desired attributes, skills, and qualities that all students should possess upon graduation from the Branford Public Schools are Branford’s Global Learning Competencies. These competencies serve as a guiding framework for our community in order to design curriculum and learning experiences that aim to cultivate well-rounded individuals who are equipped to succeed in their personal, academic, and professional lives. Branford’s Global Learning Competencies reflect the educational values and goals of the district while shaping the path of the educational journey of students. With a rich geographical and local history, the Branford community has become accustomed to a public school system that effectively and efficiently fulfills its mission of preparing students for what lies ahead in the world beyond high school. That world, however, is rapidly changing and to extend Branford’s reputation of educational innovation and success, there was a recognition among the district’s leaders and the Board of Education that public schools must continuously reflect on their own practice and seek to address the evolving uncertainties of this new environment.
