I am pleased to let you know that we have been awarded our Digital Schools Award!\u00a0 This is an amazing achievement which states that it is in recognition of the school’s excellence in integrating digital technology into learning and teaching.\u00a0 Staff and pupils who took part in the verification day were fantastic and the children spoke very confidently about how they use digital tools across learning.\u00a0 Our written feedback from the verifier was extremely positive and we have been advised to submit an application for another award around how digital supports wellbeing in our school which we hope to do in the near future.\u00a0 A huge thank you to all of the children and staff team, and particular thanks to Mrs Wallace who was our school digital lead over the last couple of years.<\/p>\n
