EDUCATION TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD & CHANGE IT FOR THE BETTER

TALLIS THRESHOLD CONCEPTS

All subject disciplines at Tallis have a set of threshold concepts (TCs). These form part of a student’s entitlement to powerful knowledge. Each set of concepts was developed in consultation with curriculum leaders. They attempt to identify aspects of knowledge that might be both foundational and troublesome. They are
invitations to thinking hard about core issues in each discipline.
