Our Digital Wizards aims to encourage our children to:

• To promote the use of ICT in our School.

Why?

The Digital Wizards play a vital role in our school.  They have ownership and a degree of control over our ICT equipment, ensuring it is fit for purpose, well looked after and shared appropriately throughout the whole school.
 

Our Digital Wizards aim to ensure our children have:

• A safe, happy and fair learning environment
• A forum to voice their concerns and act upon them
• A structured opportunity to learn problem-solving skills
• An opportunity to take an active role in the organisation of the school's ICT equipment and curriculum
• An opportunity to explore budgeting
   

Our Digital Wizards should give pupils the experience of:

• Planning, organising and monitoring small projects
• Speaking and listening skills
• Debating skills
• Sharing knowledge and skills
• Basic budgeting and managing money

Organisation:

• Two representatives from each class
• Link Teacher - Mr T. Melding
• Link Governor - Mrs M. Thomas
• Meet weekly on Thursdays at 12:30pm
   

Giving Feedback to Pupils:

The Digital Wizards speak to their class to let them know what activities they have completed during their meeting.  It is the role of the Wizards to help and support their peers with activities and to share the knowledge and skills they have gained.
