Eltham Primary School

Megan was joined by Deana from St.Joseph’s to look at how other schools use their networks to share teaching and admin resources. Looked at Stratford’s network and talked about their journey towards a ‘paperless’ school. How the use of email in communication is key, how resources can be stored in shared network areas and linked to so that teachers can be guided towards finding them more easily. We talked about how digital learning media – information cds, journal cds etc are now more commonly used and how, copyright allowing, they can be copied to and shared across a network and accessed throughout the school. We also visited Toko and thanks Richard for spending the time showing us how your network works for you. Looked at the work the MOE have been doing with Student Management System (SMS) accreditation and Infrastructure audits. Encouraged Megan to contact the appropriate people for more information before going too far down the road of adopting a SMS.
