Beyond the Classroom

A St Leo’s Initiative for the Future –

Academy of Innovation

‘We equip our students with the skills and attitudes to be future leaders in their fields.’

Technology is an integral part of daily learning at St Leo’s, with individual student iPads, MacBooks and other learning technologies serving as important tools in developing critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and communication skills. Our experience has found that technology-enabled teaching and learning allows for more active engagement, it allows teaching to meet the student at their particular point of learning, and students are encouraged to advance their skills in a safe environment.

Overall, St Leo’s is focussed on developing transferrable Deep Learning Skills that will equip all our students for the future by creating lifelong learners able to adapt to and challenge the world being constantly reshaped through advancing technology.
