Evergreen (Using iPads to Support Learning)
Evergreen is our innovative approach to using digital devices to enhance teaching and learning for all pupils. All pupils have access to devices, with pupils in Years 3 and above having their own device to use in school and at home.
Why are we doing this?
With Evergreen, we combine the best of digital and traditional teaching to prepare our pupils for a fast-changing digital world. We are committed to empowering our pupils to harness the power of technology to achieve an extraordinary education, develop into extraordinary people, and create extraordinary futures.
Evergreen in action
Evergreen aims to provide opportunities to:
-
Enhance the overall learning experience: By integrating digital devices with traditional teaching methods, we provide a thorough learning environment that caters to all pupils’ needs.
-
Enable learning anywhere, anytime: Pupils can access educational resources both in the classroom and at home, ensuring continuous learning opportunities.
-
Narrow the digital divide: By providing equal access to technology, we ensure that all pupils have the tools they need to succeed.
-
Foster independence: Encouraging pupils to take charge of their learning journey, becoming more self-reliant and motivated.
-
Personalise learning: Tailoring educational experiences to meet the unique needs of each pupil, enhancing their engagement and understanding.
-
Promote creativity and collaboration: Offering opportunities for pupils to create and share their work, fostering a collaborative learning environment.
