Background

Hazlewood Community Primary School, located in North Tyneside, has faced significant challenges recently. The presence of RAAC (Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) in the school building necessitated temporary relocation for safety reasons. From February, Miss Bowman, a dedicated teacher at Hazlewood, had to conduct her classes from the local library. This transition meant sharing the limited space with another class and relying on flipchart paper for teaching, as she did not have access to a proper screen.

Challenge

In today’s digital age, the absence of a screen for three months presented substantial obstacles for Miss Bowman and her students. The lack of digital teaching tools made it difficult to maintain engagement and deliver interactive lessons effectively. The situation highlighted the pressing need for modern educational technology to ensure quality teaching, even in temporary and challenging environments.

Solution

Understanding the difficulties faced by Miss Bowman, Newline Interactive EMEA stepped in to offer support. Upon learning about the situation, they decided to provide a long-term loan of a Lyra 65″ interactive monitor. This state-of-the-art screen, equipped with Android 11, a blue light filter, and an antimicrobial screen, would significantly enhance the teaching and learning experience for Miss Bowman and her students.

Implementation

Gary Beckett, a representative from Newline Interactive personally delivered the new screen to Hazlewood Community Primary School. The delivery of the Lyra 65″ monitor was met with great excitement and relief. Miss Bowman described the experience as “being like Christmas,” expressing her joy and gratitude for the much-needed support.

Impact

The introduction of the Lyra 65″ interactive monitor transformed the teaching environment. Miss Bowman was able to resume delivering dynamic, engaging lessons with the aid of modern technology. The interactive features of the monitor allowed for better student participation and interaction, significantly improving the overall learning experience.
