Girls' E-Learning: Developing Digital Literacy Skills
We recongnise that e-Learning support is essential for our student’s on-going development.
The uses of technology in and around the classroom (e-Learning) and the development of our students’ digital skills and competencies lie at the heart of our approach to curriculum design and learning and teaching. At St Geroge’s all-girls school, we have a firm focus on developing our student’s digital literacy from a young age. We provide modern technology throughout the academic journey to ensure e-Learning is properly integrated into our curriculum.
Digital skills are taught explicitly in IT lessons, then consolidated and reinforced through regular practice in subject-specific lessons.

Specialist E-Learning Staff
Our specialist team of e-Learning Coordinators focus on the specific challenges and opportunities at different stages of education, while also working together to ensure consistency of progress and a smooth transition.
The technology used by teachers used to enhance learning and teaching is tailored to best-practice pedagogy for the age and stage of students.
E-Learning support at different school stages
Junior School – use of iPads, supported by laptop & desktop computers for dedicated IT lessons; classrooms equipped with SMART screens to encourage interactivity and play in learning.
Lower School – transition to Windows devices, with students using school laptops and desktop computers, before developing autonomy through their individual inkable laptop; classrooms retain SMART screens.
Upper School – students use their individual devices to access learning materials within and outwith the classroom; Class Notebook is used extensively to structure class notes and student work; staff use an inkable Windows 2-in-1 device, which can be wirelessly streamed to the digital screens in classrooms, which we call “the untethered classroom”.
