Objectives | What we have achieved |
Education | Cyber security labs
|
- We have created cyber security labs in a number of our academies by recycling older generation computer hardware due for disposal; these academies can now deliver SQA Level 5 and 6 in Cyber Security in a safe and secure environment
|
Education | Digital learning
|
- Working in partnership with Computing at School through BT’s ‘Barefoot Computing’ programme, training, support and classroom resources for computing and computational thinking skills were provided in our schools
- Fifteen workshops for primary school teachers were delivered with 223 teachers registered to use programme resources in their classrooms
|
Education | Digital solutions
|
- We have developed high-tech 'Protools' labs in every academy, enabling music technology courses to be delivered using industry standard software already in use in further education universities and colleges
|
Education | Digital innovation
|
- Working with engineering partners, we have created an in-house mobile projector system that allows pupils to interact with a PC by projecting screen images on to the floor or wall; using a pointer to open applications and access the internet, the pupil is effectively immersed in the application or web page they are viewing
|
Education | Digital information |
- We have installed a content management system across a number of our schools that allows staff to present information relating to the school on one or more screens simultaneously
