Read about Galway ETSS innovative use of iPads for teaching and learning
See how Galway Educate Together Secondary School used an innovative approach to teaching and learning to meet their students’ needs and help them achieve their potential.
Overview
When Galway Educate Together Secondary School opened up in 2019, its main aim was to build resilient, independent learners who had the digital skills and tools they needed to go out and embrace the future.
See how they achieve their goals with student-centred learning using iPads in our school video diary series.
Students have become independent learners.
“It’s not really about the technology. It’s about the possibilities that are opened up by technology. The iPads allow students to create, to evaluate and to problem-solve.”
“We want our students to be resilient, independent learners and to go out and change the world they live in.” Sarah Molloy, Principal
It makes new learning opportunities possible.
“It’s that one device that can do everything, that makes the learning possible. It’s about inspiring students that they can be anything they want to be.” Peadar Harvey, Engineering teacher
Students are empowered with the digital skills they need
“We were very privileged to have the iPads. They taught me to be more organised and meant I didn’t miss out on any learning when we weren’t in school” Lucy, student.

“Honestly, I think the access to technology has been a big positive. The creativity it’s allowed them to have, it’s given them more scope to play around with the type of information that they want to hand up in their projects or home learning”
