Digital Learning
Our teachers are dedicated to continually developing their teaching practice to provide the most effective and engaging learning experience for our pupils. A crucial aspect of this commitment involves staying at the forefront of technological advancements and their applications in the classroom.
A key pillar of our Digital Learning program is our swift embracement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a powerful educational tool, recognising its capacity to transform teaching and learning. AI literacy is now embedded across our work as a school, enabling our teachers to plan and deliver even better lessons, and helping our pupils develop the key skills they will need to thrive in the future. As AI becomes an increasingly present feature of the educational landscape, we will continue to innovate our practice, keeping pace with the rapid development of this technology.

This ensures that every teacher at Emanuel has access to resources and regular training, to help them plan and deliver effective and engaging lessons, as well as wider learning opportunities for our pupils.
