Here are some articles about the experiences of some other primary schools as they embark on introducing learning platforms. What do you think are the lessons we can learn from them? What are we doing that could inform other schools? Please contribute to the debate.

Not sure if this is the right place to leave this question – but here goes anyway.
I was looking at the frontier web site last night with my child and would like to know ;
1. Will Year 6 still have access to this site when
they leave St John’s ?
2. If not, when is the last time they can use it ?
It will be a shame if they cannot use it, as it could be an excellent way of them keeping in touch with each other at a new, exciting and yet scary time of their life. As the children are going to so many different schools, it would be useful for them to share their experiences with each other.
The reason for asking is
This is a great point. I believe all Lewisham secondary schools are using Fronter. We will not be deleting the accounts until we are required to do so and are happy for the children to communicate for as long as “the system” will let them. This whole area has massive potential which will need exploring. Transition to secondary school is such an important stage in a child’s life and I do think that we will be able to use this tool in the future to prepare for and support this transition. I will start to find out how this can occur. Many thanks.
