Professional growth for our staff: getting the most from interactive whiteboards

Our school held a training session for teachers and staff on the modern and safe use of interactive whiteboards. Teachers and assistants explored programs and apps that make learning more engaging and effective.

The training focused on practical examples of using technology in lessons, as well as on safe use. With these new skills, our educators can better combine teaching with interactive tools, making lessons not only useful but exciting.

We thank all our teachers and assistants for their enthusiasm and are confident these skills will benefit every classroom in our school.
