Information Communication Technology (ICT) supports the curriculum and is integrated through all key learning aspects at John Paul College. Technology is used as part of the students’ everyday education and supports their learning needs, helps develop their creativity and logical and lateral thinking, assists with research, and develops digital and information literacy skills essential for life in the real world.
Our youngest students begin their technology educational journey through the use of interactive whiteboards and access to computers in all Child Care, Kindergarten and Junior Primary classrooms.
Our Year 4 to Year 12 students participate in our well established Notebook Computer Program and routinely use their own personal notebook computer, as part of their daily school life.
