The past few years has seen the world pivot to rely on technology in ways it never has before. However, this ‘new way of doing’ was already a big part of school life here at ESMS, and our teachers and students have long enjoyed the benefits and opportunities which come from digital learning.
This commitment to the future of education has recently been recognised by EdTech giants, Microsoft, who have named ESMS a 'Showcase School'.
This makes us part of a leading group of schools that exemplify the best of teaching and learning in the world today. Only a few institutions earn this designation, and we are thrilled to be the first independent school in Scotland to hold this accolade.
Microsoft Showcase Schools are pioneers in education, and we are proud to be part of this outstanding global community, recognised and celebrated for educational transformation that includes vision and innovation in teaching, learning, and preparing students for the future.
At ESMS, it is the way in which we blend the traditional curriculum with digital learning that really drives us forward. Our teachers are always thinking of new and innovative ways to inspire our students to develop a lifelong love of learning.
Of course, the work is never done! The digital landscape changes day by day, and our teachers and staff, driven by our Head of e-learning, Simon Luxford-Moore, work incredibly hard to ensure we are always ahead of the game.
