Case studies
Here’s how Learn Anywhere has already helped other schools achieve their personalised learning visions...
St Paul’s Catholic College Burgess Hill, West Sussex “We could see that we needed to bridge the gap between the way our students live their lives and the way they learn. It’s not about knowledge, it’s about giving children the skills they need for the workplace and their future lives,” says Andy Lowe, Director of e-learning and Assistant Headteacher at St Paul’s Catholic College, commenting on the college’s e-learning vision. St Paul’s now has interactive whiteboards in every classroom and 700 laptops in use, enabling the college to realise the full potential of a virtual learning environment, where pupils, staff and parents can communicate with each other and share a full range of curriculum-based educational resources both in the classroom and at home.
Addington High School Croydon, London Addington High School is a secondary comprehensive in Croydon. With a catchment area that includes some of the most deprived areas of London, the school faces many challenges as it strives to deliver a robust education to every one of its 820 pupils. Despite this, the school has just successfully applied to become a specialist visual and media arts college and a dramatic rise in its GCSE pass rate has made it London’s second most improved school. Phase two of the New Addington OnLine project has just been completed, putting 150 affordable laptops into the hands of pupils and their families.
