What Future School for schools is about!

Future School's online school system provides your school with an interactive resource that supports your classroom teaching. The system focuses on individual student needs by offering self-engaged interactive lessons. This allows teachers to concentrate on students requiring one on one assistance.

Future School has developed curriculums that support various syllabyses around the world. The lessons have been aligned with school stages and appropriate school years.

What other teachers are saying about Future School

"St Leo's Catholic College implemented the Future School system in all Year 7-10 English classes in 2009 to support the college literacy focus. Used primarily as a homework tool, students have benefited from consolidating their classroom lessons though engaging interactive online lessons. The ability to track student progress has been extremely helpful to teachers, and more recently the ability to individualise the program for each student has made it more responsive to individual needs."

Brenda Timp - English Co-ordinator

"The unique ability of this system to capture the pupil’s attention, facilitate interaction and motivate learning. This is what makes it so valuable in terms of enhancing the teaching and learning process."

Mr K Dudakia, Independent Registered OFSTED Inspector... more testimonials

How Future School will benefit your school!

Use the system to supplement daily lessons or as a homework resource. Use it in the classroom environment, or simply use it for extra-curricula studies, revision and extension work. Functionality allows teachers to assign lessons which students can access both in the classroom and at home.

How it’s used - the perfect tool!

The teacher is able to present a Future School lesson by electronic interactive whiteboard or a projector through a PC or laptop in their classroom or computer lab. The teacher can select a lesson in line with the classroom teaching and present a pre-defined video tutorial that gives step-by-step instruction on the fundamentals associated with the lesson material. If the teacher doesn’t have access to the computer lab, whiteboard, laptop or PC, lessons can be assigned to the class from the staffroom or any computer. Students can then access the lesson at home or from any computer with broadband connection for homework, revision or extension work.

The Teacher's assistant - the perfect support resource

As a specific resource in the school it can be utilised to become the perfect teacher's assistant in the classroom:

• Delivery methods - Used in conjunction with an electronic whiteboard or PC driven projector a selected lesson can be presented to the class and the results recorded by the temporary teacher using our standard presentation methodology.
