We use Apple Technology in the classroom to help us fulfil our vision of creative learning. Children use music, video, photography, drawing and coding to support their learning. They also use iPad to develop their reading, writing and mathematics. Our use of technology is embedded across the curriculum and all teachers are trained in how to use it effectively to ensure rapid progress in learning.
We film all the action from the Anson stage so that you can watch it again at home. If you need to be at work, or cannot make an assembly, please click the link below and watch the performance online.
