Twynham School implemented a learning platform using Microsoft SharePoint to encourage student participation and responsibility for learning. Students were involved in the design and provided feedback. The platform includes a student homepage, revision resources, and ways for students to track their progress. It also includes a parent gateway to facilitate parental engagement, which research shows improves student achievement. The platform integrates with the school's student information system and allows remote access to applications to benefit the entire school community.
