Our story at King’s Cross Academy – Next Generation Learning
-Example journey from school I am Digital Learning Lead within
Next Generation Learning is our commitment to developing the digital environment within the academy.
Background
We have always been a 21st century school, future thinking and innovative with a rich learning philosophy and capacity for transformational use of technology. Next Generation Learning is the action we are taking to lead the way in education for the future
Everyone is a learner and learning is everywhere. Education is facilitated by staff in an environment where children’s natural curiosity is underpinned and enabled by a distinctly 21st-century skill set.
Children have ownership over their school day and are accountable for their learning. Staff members are confident, curious and courageous and King’s Cross Academy is a beacon in education, a training school that leads the way for education in the future.
“Year 5 and 6 will be helping to teach Early Years and Year 1, education will be recycled through the school.
We will use digital devices to help us learn even more, we could use Minecraft, learn to design and build, create and reflect on our work. I want to learn this way because I think using computers is more fun and helps us to learn for our futures.
Technology can be used as part of our curriculum alongside physical and outdoor learning. Also, we should have more free time in response to our great learning. I really like writing essays and paragraphs on the computer but the whole school should not rely on technology and we should also work in our books.” Elvis, Year 6
