Transforming teaching and learning opportunities at Great Ormond Street using the London Grid for Learning.
The London Grid for Learning (LGfL) is working with Great Ormond Street Hospital to transform teaching and learning in the hospital school. Learners access LGfL’s online content and learning platform, which provides secure individual email, personal web-space and online storage, membership of personalised communities and courses to meet the needs of each learner in the school. The learners can access these resources whilst in the school, or when off-site, wherever there is internet access.
The use of LGfL online technologies is helping Great Ormond Street Hospital move towards to the government’s vision outlined in the ‘Harnessing technology – 2005’ white paper, whereby ICT is being used to support teaching and learning for chronically ill children at Great Ormond Street.
The LGfL is a consortium of 33 Local Authorities which provides a filtered broadband connection, network services, a common learning platform, online content and support communities for all schools across London.
