Mount Hawke Academy, Aspire Academy Trust

Digital Learning Cornwall has been providing hands-on CPD for primary school staff for a number of years, constantly searching for technology implementations that provide real value and true working purpose for schools. We operate within a group of 28 primaries and have provided CPD and guidance to numerous external settings. Children’s learning, practicalities and staff ease-of-use are always at the top of our agenda.

Our Journey With Educational Technology

Deploying our strategy of single-sign on, child-friendly access for children across our group. We continue to tailor this function for remote learning scenarios

Utilising working groups of staff to evaluate the impact of remote learning, including working with key pieces of software while examining uptake and results

Staff communicate and collaborate through established cloud services, with increased in-house online training

Having established a solid starting point for our diverse range of parents to access learning, we now push towards fuller VLE and related systems – including video for setting tasks and feedback, and manipulating online products to motivate and engage

Evaluation of safeguarding concerns and implications for online learning practice continue to be paramount within our approach

Preparing accessible webinars, sign-up meetings and online evaluative documentation begin to roll-out, allowing MATs and schools to develop a relationship with us
