Apple Distinguished School
Greenside is pleased to announce that it has been recognized as an Apple Distinguished School for 2022–2025 for its innovative use of Apple technology inspiring unique, exciting and challenging Learning Experiences within the Greenside Experiential Learning Model.
We have been able to connect more effectively with our community, our students have successfully collaborated in all strands of the Curriculum and our use of Apple technology has supported our vision to be an innovative and creative World Ready and Test Ready place of learning: Breaking Boundaries and learning about film, through film and by making films.
Apple Distinguished Schools are centers of innovation, leadership, and educational excellence. They use Apple technology to inspire creativity, collaboration and critical thinking in learning, teaching and the school environment, and have documented results of academic accomplishment.
“We are thrilled to be part of this unique Network of Apple Distinguished schools and look forward to sharing, leading and learning together over the coming months. We are so proud of our students and Teachers.” Karen Bastick-Styles (Executive Head)
The selection of Greenside as an Apple Distinguished School highlights our success as an innovator and a compelling learning environment that engages students, and provides tangible evidence of academic achievement.
Our vision at Greenside is for every student to achieve that little bit more than thought possible, and our expectations are high! We believe that ‘Learning is Everything and Everything is Learning!’ – and so every learning experience is designed to ensure that we ‘Break Boundaries’ and challenge our students to be leaders.
Our aim is to support all students to be ‘World Ready and Test Ready through the Arts and Technology’. We want all of our students and staff to be inspired to be learners and leaders.
Our students use their iPad devices to collaborate, create, and connect. They share, present, research, and organise in many different ways across all year groups. We love giving our students the agency and ownership over their digital outcomes; they personalise them and really show their individuality! This gives them purpose and an audience, as the use of iPad devices is integrated into the teaching and learning provision. Students and staff are truly becoming 21st Century learners.
