Notes: This paper offers an account of a collaborative action research study which set out to explore the impact of a thinking skills pedagogy upon a sample of primary school children's learning and beliefs about learning. The discussion is grounded in the philosophical theory of action research and learning, and explores the extent to which a philosophical schism creates a tension and impedes transformation in education; this schism is discussed in relation to constructivist and sociocultural views of learning.
