Digital technology plays an important role in modern education, providing students with new ways to access information, collaborate, create, and engage with their learning.
At Jesus and Mary Secondary School, Gortnor Abbey, technology is used to enhance teaching and learning experiences across a range of subjects and year groups. Digital tools help students develop confidence, independence, and the skills needed to succeed in an increasingly connected world.
Our approach focuses on using technology purposefully to support learning, creativity, communication, and problem-solving.
How We Support Students
A range of supports may be provided depending on individual student needs and recommendations.
Technology is integrated across a wide range of subjects and learning experiences, supporting research, project work, presentations, creativity, communication, and independent study. By incorporating digital tools into everyday learning, students gain valuable experience while developing the confidence to use technology effectively and responsibly. The focus remains on enhancing learning rather than replacing it, ensuring that technology is used in meaningful and purposeful ways throughout the school experience.
