We have an ambitious digital strategy that places teaching and learning at its core, using modern technology to increase student and parent engagement, reduce administrative workload for staff and ensure that every child has the opportunity to experience the benefits of the digital workplace.<\/p>\r\nWe have invested significantly to ensure our students have access to the latest technology so that they are well-equipped to succeed in the modern world:\r\n
\"Never let a good crisis go to waste\"\r\nWinston Churchill<\/p>\r\n <\/blockquote>\r\nWe took the opportunity during the COVID crisis, to accelerate our Digital Transformation Strategy, quickly becoming a Google Classroom school with each pupil having their own unique login to an online classroom where they can access learning materials, submit homework, communicate with their peers and teachers, as well as for remote learning through Zoom video-conferencing.\r\n\r\nThrough our Google Classroom portal, which can be accessed on any device, students have access to the latest word processing, creative and publishing software - completely free.\r\n\r\nWe are a proud member of the DfE\u2019s Edtech Demonstrator Programme and we benefit from the support of our partner schools, the Cheam Common Junior Academy<\/a> in the LEO Academy Trust and Britannia Village Primary School<\/a> in Newham.\r\n\r\nFind out more about the Edtech Demonstrator Programme<\/a>\r\n\r\nIn addition, we use the following educational software to assist our pupils:\r\n
\r\n \t
- Adobe Creative Cloud including Spark, Illustrator and Lightroom<\/li>\r\n \t
- Atom Learning<\/li>\r\n \t
- Busy Things<\/li>\r\n \t
- EdShed<\/li>\r\n \t
- LetterJoin<\/li>\r\n \t
- LGfL online resources<\/li>\r\n \t
- Purple Mash<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nFinally, we support all of our families to ensure that every child has access to learning technology:\r\n
\r\n \t
- Loan laptops\/tablets and free 4G Wifi (SIM cards and routers) for disadvantaged families<\/li>\r\n \t
- Remote ICT support for students when working from home<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nFor any queries or to request support, please email ict@st-josephs-jun.croydon.sch.uk<\/a>","content_two":"","section_width":"full","content_width":"wide","section_title":"","align_title":"text-left","section_spacing":"no-spacing-top","separator":false},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","columns":"1","content_one":"Parent Info provides support and advice to parents, with contributions from the leading experts and organisations in matters related to young people and families in a digital world.\r\n\r\nClick here for the latest articles from Parentinfo.org<\/a>\r\n\r\n ","content_two":"","section_width":"full","content_width":"wide","section_title":"Useful links","align_title":"text-left","section_spacing":"no-spacing-both","separator":false}],"override_title":""},"yoast_head":"\n
