Our Mission

The experts around the world agree on this. That learning must be a joy. We discovered to our surprise that no one in the world had made this their mission.

The mission of Stansfield College is to ‘Make Learning Enjoyable’. We are not promising to make or tell more jokes in class to make you laugh but we do believe that our learning systems and approach will make a difference.

As Confucius says: Tell me and I will forget; Show me and I may remember; Involve me and I will learn. Imagine that you are presenting to a group of 8 students and challenging your classmates on an issue.

Imagine getting involved deeply in the discussion and making long lasting friendships at the same time. Presenting topics give you the competence and ultimately the confidence to display your personal mastery over the topics.

Under our ‘24/8’ learning system, full time students attend lectures with a class size of up to 24 students and participate in group discussions in a class of 8 students. Research shows that ‘eight’ is the optimal class size for group discussions – to have a debate, dialogue or discussion. (Please note that part-time classes do not use the ‘24/8’ learning system due to the commitment expected of students.)

A mission is a goal that we should succeed every day. At Stansfield College, we have specific strategies, tools and methods to measure that we reach our mission every day. We know that we cannot make you laugh at our jokes or promise that we are good at telling one. But we most certainly will get you involved, every day.
