Google Reference school
We are pleased to announce that St David's High School has been awarded Google Reference School status
St David's started using G Suite Apps including Classroom in 2016.
We initially purchased 30 Chromebooks and that number has now grown to over 200 and we are constantly striving to offer our students the best possible teaching and learning experiences and access to technology.
At the start of 2020, St David's was awarded Google Reference School status. This means we have been recognised by Google for our 'outstanding use of technology to drive learning outcomes'.
At the time of writing, we are the first and only High School within the GwE region to be awarded this recognition.
Being a Google Reference School demonstrates that our staff and students are responsible, competent and confident users of technology and that we can now officially continue to offer support to other schools both on a local and national level.
We believe that learning does not stop at the school gates and that G Suite gives us the tools needed to allow blended learning opportunities for all of our students.
