As we transition to a scaled implementation of Frog in South Australian schools, our early implementation lessons identify the need for a stronger understanding of the South Australian school context and the benefits Frog brings to students, parents and educators.
By identifying and working with early adopters who commit to work with us, we can better shape the requirements of a ‘to scale’ implementation. Through recognition of the knowledge South Australian schools bring of their local context and the experience of Frog Education UK, we can build an Australian-based community of best practice.
What is a champion school?
A Frog Education SA champion school is one that...
Commits to educational innovation and transformation to improve learning outcomes for students and staff communication and collaboration.
Promotes the transformational outcomes across their network of schools and beyond.
Actively and collaboratively engages in ongoing implementation and engagement services from the Frog Education SA (DfE) and Frog Education UK.
Demonstrates consistent best practice in the implementation and use of Frog.
Both teams will work alongside the school’s leadership team and lead teachers to co-create and plan a strategy for the use of the Frog digital learning platform to engage students, staff, and families. This work will be underpinned by the Department for Education Strategy and the school’s vision and mission.
