Talbot Heath school is pleased to announce that it has been recognised as an Apple Distinguished School for 2024 – 2027 for its commitment and innovation of technology in education.
Apple Distinguished Schools are centres of innovation, leadership, and educational excellence. They use Apple technology to connect students to the world, fuel creativity, deepen collaboration, and make learning personal.
Tracy Harris, Head of Talbot Heath stated: “I am delighted that Talbot Heath has achieved Apple Distinguished School Status again. We pride ourselves on being a leader in innovation and are very proud of the fact that this has been once again recognised by Apple. Thanks go to the hard work of Jo Maule and the Apple champions in the school. The selection of Talbot Heath as an Apple Distinguished School highlights our success in creating an innovative and compelling learning environment that engages students and provides tangible evidence of academic achievement.
‘Our students and teaching staff benefit tremendously from having 1:1 iPads; this really came into its own during lockdown, when we could continue teaching and learning as usual, remotely. Our students and teachers are extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic when using their iPads alongside a variety of apps, and our unique interdisciplinary curriculum supports this well. We are already proud to be an Apple Regional Training Centre, and we regularly offer free events to those working in education in the local area. We are also currently planning our new courses to the general public, as well as our own school community, so watch this space!’
