Innovative Learning
As an Apple Distinguished School, the Digital Learning Programme begins from the youngest age when your child will access school iPads. From Year Four upwards, they will have their own device, which will be used in a variety of meaningful ways across the curriculum.
Far from replacing textbooks and writing, iPads change the way we teach and the way your child learns. The technology allows us to provide your child with an engaging and innovative learning environment.

Online Safety Prioritised
You’d be forgiven for thinking that equipping an 8-year-old with an iPad is ill-conceived. Rest assured that your child’s iPad will be programmed with software which allows you to control access.
The settings are fixed at school, but you can set a ‘recipe’ for home which determines what your child can access and when. In this way, online safety is guaranteed, and battles over screens are a thing of the past.
