We are delighted to share the news that the school was officially presented with its Digital Schools Award yesterday at an awards ceremony at St Mungo’s High School, Falkirk.

Representatives from Education Scotland, HP and Microsoft presented our delegates, Mr Hardie, Miss Cooper and S5 pupil Morgan Cumming, with the Digital Schools Award plaque to recognise the progress made and commitment to embedding digital learning across the curriculum in Stewarton Academy.

Mr Miller, the school’s new Head Teacher, was delighted to see the efforts of the staff, pupils and partners recognised. “The programme offers schools a real opportunity to build on their digital capabilities,” he said. “We are very proud of the work undertaken to achieve the Digital Schools Award. Developing the digital skills that will enable our pupils to compete and thrive in the modern economy is a vital part of the work we do and we look forward to building on this success and embedding digital technology and learning further across out curriculum.”
