Staff Professional Learning Day

On 12 September, we held a Staff Professional Learning Day which offered a focused and practical opportunity for both teaching and administration staff to prepare for the upcoming transition to Microsoft Office 365 and to continue developing quality teaching programs.

A range of sessions allowed staff to engage at their level, with hands-on training in key Microsoft 365 tools such as Teams, Outlook and OneDrive. These sessions aimed to build confidence and ease the changeover process.

The day was well received, with staff valuing the choice of sessions and the balance between technical training and pedagogical development. Ongoing support will be key to maintaining momentum and ensuring successful implementation.
