Classroom of the Future

Mrs Jenkins, our P6 teacher, applied to introduce a ‘classroom of the future’ at Birkhill Primary School. She was successful in her application bid and got not only new technology for the school but also new furniture to help pupils with focus and concentration. P6 may have the chance to sit on yoga balls and wobbly stools in the near future!

Last term, the P6 class did a topic on technology and had the opportunity to visit Sky Academy Skills Studios in Livingston. The pupils took on a variety of roles to create their own news broadcast about technology within the classroom.

Following their visit, P6 also had the chance to learn about coding. They are looking forward to seeing how the classroom may change as new things are introduced.
