Mixed Secondary 55% EAL 87% A*-C Inc (96%) 1150 Students (11-18) St. Mark’s Catholic School

Current Situation Fronter introduced 2007 Gained ICT mark in 2009 Current focus = pupils as leaders of fronter Average 80% hit rate per month (2011) 55 Staff and 950 unique users per month

Where did we start? All Wrong! (just started by uploading resources – what's the point?) Lack of engagement – both sides Complicated system Focused on the wrong areas Time to rethink!

Discussion time – Barriers or Success? What barriers if any do you currently have in using and implementing fronter in the school? What has worked well when using fronter?

WHY?

To give pupils an option?

A digital native! “But why isn't it on now? I don’t understand” I want it now! ‘Any time any where’ generation. I cant read yet or write but I know how to use the ipad! “But why cant I play on the ipad Mummy?!”

Future Occupations New jobs appearing – “Identity manager“ and “virtual builder” Google -Looking for “Googleness” -Value talent and intelligence, group spirit and diversity, creativity and idealism -Googlers range from former neurosurgeons and puzzle champions to alligator wrestlers and Lego maniacs -Application = “Tell us what makes you unique”

Focus – Teaching and Learning
