We make use of a variety of digital technology to help support our students and to increase their awareness of the dynamic UK and global business environment that will soon be an active part of.

We make extensive use of GLOW Teams to work collaboratively and to make resources accessible outwith the classroom.

 

The department makes use of Twitter to keep our school community informed on what we are up to.
