ICT for Staff and Pupils
Paddock School is an environment that is committed to ensuring that pupils have the opportunity to thrive in a setting where they feel calm, secure and happy. Our teachers are extraordinarily committed and put the pupils first in everything they do.
All staff and pupils have the opportunity to use computers at Paddock School. Using "Information Communication Technology" regularly, gives pupils and staff the opportunity to explore and learn best practices in the use of IT in a secure environment.
It is one of the most active learning platforms for pupils and staff, with more access online, we need to be able to embrace these new technologies effectively and efficiently.
Here we will add links to programs that are currently being used at our school for both staff and pupils to access. Note : some sites can only be accessed by staff with appropriate USO. (Unique Sign On Login).
