Through our EmpowerED digital strategy, we seamlessly integrate Apple technology into all aspects of learning, creating an engaging, personalised educational experience. Our Apple Learning Coaches and certified staff empower students and teachers alike to unlock their full potential. This prestigious recognition highlights our ongoing commitment to inspire, imagine, and make a lasting impact, both within our school and across the wider community.
Our EmpowerED vision ensures that technology empowers everyone within our schools and the broader community. By integrating Apple TVs and personalised learning platforms to complement our iPads, we have transformed classrooms into dynamic, innovative hubs. Teachers guide students to become confident problem-solvers and impactful creators, extending their skills into the community through projects like gifting devices to local care homes to support cognitive well-being. We offer workshops for parents, enabling them to engage more actively in their child's learning. Together, we create a learning environment that inspires students to thrive today and shape a brighter tomorrow.
At Windsor High School and Sixth Form, we prioritise the use of Apple technology to revolutionise student learning. Our students are active participants in shaping their education, driving curriculum discussions through online platforms and ensuring their voices are heard. Their learning extends beyond the classroom through collaboration with local care homes, fostering connection by creating reading materials with residents. Through innovative projects like designing books and animations, students use technology to share knowledge in creative ways. With each lesson, we cultivate a spirit of discovery and community, empowering students to explore endless possibilities and become leaders of tomorrow.
In addition to our Apple Learning Coaches, we facilitate teacher-led research to develop tech-driven solutions for classroom challenges, sharing these projects via social media and at online events with over 400 viewers. Through our innovative use of technology, we ensure every student receives equitable support, particularly those with additional needs. Our teachers utilise iPad accessibility features to enhance reading, self-regulation, and translation, creating an inclusive learning environment. Sustainability is at the core of our efforts, too, with a 36% reduction in printers saving 134,500 pages annually and reducing our carbon footprint, highlighting our commitment to a greener future.
