iPads in School

Today’s classrooms are largely unchanged since the industrial revolution, and yet, the rest of the world has changed enormously since then. To succeed in a competitive global economy, employers are looking for creative staff who are fresh and possess modern skills; they need to be able to work in groups to pose and solve complex problems and be able to communicate across teams and borders. The traditional classroom does not often cater for the needs of today’s students, who learn best when engaged in content and activities that relate to their own lives and experiences.

We understand that this can be an expensive time for parents and we have been in touch with the local credit union to help spread the cost of paying for your child’s school iPad over a period of time.  Knocklyon/Dundrum Credit Union have co-operated with us offering favourable terms to parents of our school. ​
