· Junior infants-4th class have access to iPads each week. They can play games, research, and read on the devices.



Other uses for ICT in our school include:

· Beebots: the children can use these to navigate direction and spatial awareness.

· Interactive boards: the children can use the interactive boards during lessons for learning, to engage in games and online activities.

· Apps and websites are used to support SESE and STEM.

· Websites such as Topmarks, ict games and apps for maths and literacy.
