Digital Learning in The Harold School

iPads

We have 30 junior and 30 senior iPads which the children have the opportunity to use each week.

Smartboards

All classrooms have been fitted with new smartboards.

Professional Development

Many of our staff engage in continuous professional development courses in the area of digital learning and they are very willing to embark on the process of embedding digital technologies in teaching and learning in our school.

Kahoot App

Children are frequently engaged in fun quizzes designed by their teachers using the Kahoot app. These quizzes have helped to assess the pupils’ grasp of particular topics that were covered in class. They are a fun, hands-on approach to assessing learning.

Beebot

The junior end of our school has access to Beebots. It is amazing to watch our 5 and 6 year old pupils engaging in simple coding tasks to instruct their little Beebot to carry out their wishes!

Sock Puppet

Our SEN team use apps such as Sock Puppets to promote and develop the oral language skills of our pupils.
