Success
Success In Action
In St Joseph's we are very aware that success in schools is often measured by academic results. However we do not rely soley on an academic focus but rather on the holistic approach. We look at many sources of both data and opinion to inform our practice throughout both the school year and over the course of a young persons education with us.
Our success is reflected in many ways. 100% of our teachers are Apple Teachers. 92% of students strongly agree that iPad helps them learn more easily and this is reflected that since our 1:1 program, our academic outcomes have also improved by 15%. Student, parent and teacher voice all agree that creativity is enhanced, with students enjoying the choice of different apps.
Our Digital Technology leader is an ambassador for Apple technology across the region as other schools develop their iPad use and their Teacher Professional Learning.
