This term has been extremely exciting and invigorating with the launch of our new website and the introduction of the London Managed Learning Environment. As part of our reducing the school’s carbon footprint we now send out our weekly newsletter electronically and we are using eschoolmail to send out some letters to parents.

The website and the MLE are both important factors in change management. They have caused us to examine and improve our student data, including parents’ email addresses, and the quality of the information we provide for parents and the outside world. E4Education’s support for podcasting and video throughout the website makes a valuable contribution to the growing awareness of alternatives to text based information both for parents and as tools for providing learning resources that match the learning styles of many of our students. Our Reception staff use the website as a source of information in dealing with calls from parents and the public. As parents become more aware of the website and its features such as RSS to bring school news direct to their desktops, we hope that the site will help at least some parents develop their ICT capability.

All this in just over half a term and we have so much more we can do with the website!
