We are increasingly using Twitter as a means of communication at Bishop Gore and we now have nearly 600 followers, with this number increasing on a weekly basis.
Twitter is used by us in a number of different ways:
One of the most interesting ways is the 'live Tweet' which is where we use Twitter to give regular updates on events. We used this recently to great effect in our Eisteddfod and our Talent Unleashed concert. We plan to use this this more and more - including in this week's Presentation Evening.
Pupils, parents and carers have also started to use Twitter to communicate with us. We often receive Tweets on Sunday asking 'what week are we on next week' and so on. It really is helping to improve our communication channels with members of our community.
It will be interesting to see how the use of Twitter as a teaching and learning tool develops. Pupils being able to ask questions before, during and after a lesson will hopefully become an important part of the pedagogy at Bishop Gore.
Meanwhile, if you haven't done so yet, please follow us on @bishopgore!
