NEW - Blended Learning Site

Over the last few months, home learning has

become the norm with schools using new

technologies to deliver curriculum content and

support effective learning.

As education embraces a phased return to school, even

greater challenges present with the prospect of a mixture of school

and home learning becoming the new norm.

We have created a new site to support schools in implementing this new 'blended' learning, focusing in particular on the existing tools available to support simultaneous learning both in school and at home.

Please click the image above or use the link below to access the site.

Training - Autumn term 2020

As we are not in a position to offer face to face training during the Autumn term we have a revised SIMS support training offer for the Autumn term.

The programme is basically the same courses as normally advertised but instead they will be delivered 'virtually' via half day 9.30 - 12pm or one hour Teams sessions.

The delegate costs has been revised to reflect the change.

New User training will be 2 x 2.5 hour Teams sessions and supplemented with a series of 'How To' videos.

If you do have any new users that need training please let us know asap so that we can book them onto the appropriate sessions.

To book email or request via the SIMS training page www.ictds.org/sims-training-courses
