Two PrinciplesThree Pillars03AutonomyCompassionCreativityTwo PrinciplesAt the core of Dalton Tokyo is the Dalton Plan: an educational method created and developed by the visionary U.S.educator Helen Parkhurst. Based on her three-pillared system—the House, the Assignment, and the Laboratory—the Dalton Plan aims to enhance students’ abilities by focusing on the principles of “Freedom and Cooperation.”Work on the questions you find, not just the ones given to you. This is where the joy of learning lies, and where the drive to continue learning is born. With over 100 years of history, the Dalton Plan fosters a forward-thinking self-confidence in one’s own intelligence and ability to succeed.Freedom :Students develop autonomy and compassion based on their individual interests.Cooperation :Students develop compassion and empathy through active interactions and collaboration with a variety of people.House :A community that, in a microcosm of the larger school community, includes students from every grade level.Assignment :A problem-based learning approach that encourages students to be more proactive while developing their individual strengths and addressing their specific needs.Laboratory :“Laboratory” refers to sessions augmenting traditional classroom instruction where students can further their learning in a specific content area—either independently or with peers—under the guidance of a faculty member.AssignmentHouseLaboratoryFreedomCooperation&Joy of Learning,Pleasure of Creation
