Online Safety
At Nantwich Primary Academy we aim to be at the forefront in keeping your child safe online. The internet is an amazing resource that children should be taught to use critically and safely.
All children must understand the risks of using the internet yet not find it a scary place. Through educating our children we ensure they are safe users.

iPads
The EEF emphasises the importance of personalised learning to address individual needs and provide targeted assistance. iPads can facilitate this through adaptive learning apps, progress tracking, and tailored feedback.
Implementing iPads for staff and pupils will have an immediate impact on feedback, collaboration and complement existing learning, as well as reducing waste.
Our computer lead is supported by a Digital Champion, Digital Leader and Student Digital Leaders. We're part of a supportive computing team across our Trust and beyond too.
OUR VISION FOR TECHNOLOGY
We aim to create a safe and supportive environment, where all can feel empowered to independently develop their own skills and knowledge, taking risks where necessary in order to raise aspirations.
​
We have identified technology as a key tool to enhance learning and support in unlocking our children’s potential.
KEY APPS
SHOWBIE
Showbie allows the children to share their work electronically with their class teacher. Teachers can then send children feedback via voice note. This means the children are receiving more personalised feedback which will help them progress. Staff share key knowledge mats to help the children retrieve key information and support them in becoming Historians, Geographers and Scientists.

NUMBERS
Our Digital Leaders in school have developed an endless note taking template for Maths and English using this core app. Children are now able to take notes and refer to these whenever they need to retrieve or recap some of their previous learning.
