Digital Leaders
What is a digital leader?
A digital leader is a student who is part of our digital leader team.
Digital leaders look after the iPads and MacBooks in the library, making sure they are charged and turned off ready for other students to use in their lessons. They also ensure that all of the equipment works well and stays up to date. Digital leaders are responsible for the safe use of computers throughout the school. They can assist other children in keeping safe online and will be producing a leaflet each term to help others. The digital leaders will be updating the website with safety information and are very keen to help other children develop their computing skills during lessons as well as helping staff members with technology.
