“Digital devices have the potential to expand and enhance interaction in the classroom, enable more real-world activities, improve learning environments and engage students in new and exciting ways. Opportunities for collaboration and problem-solving are expanded beyond the classroom in an online environment” (Ministry of Education).

My Mobile Learning (MML) is part of our Year 7 - 8 Programme and as of 2024 we will be extending this to include our Y5&6 students.  It is entirely optional. Students will continue to have access to school-owned devices.

The thinking behind MML at St Heliers School is that students who have access to an existing suitable device at home, bring their device to school to use as one of the many learning tools utilised in their classroom programme.

For your information, we have put together documentation including;

• The Rationale

• Frequently Asked Questions (including suitable devices and recommendations)

• Agreement Form that must be completed, signed and returned to the school before your child can bring their device.
