West Hoathly Church of England Primary School

Good teaching has always inspired learners but now we also have the new opportunities provided by technology.  We can experience learning in ways previously impossible. We can travel the world using virtual tours; walking through historical sites and visiting spectacular environments.  Using 3D modelling we can view locations and objects from any angle.  This interactivity engages learners, stimulating their imagination and enthusiasm for subjects.  Bon voyage!
