Notes on use

  • The presentation and appearance of web pages will differ between mobile devices.
  • Pictures might be visible depending on the capabilities of your mobile device.
  • You might not be able to view all online content if you are using a mobile device made before 2003.
  • See your mobile device's manual to optimise your device for viewing web pages.
  • Despite our best efforts, all of the Smart Classrooms website may not be correctly presented on some mobile devices.

News (RSS) feeds

The Smart Classrooms website uses news feeds.

Feeds enable you to tailor the news that appears on the home page of the website.

So, if you are interested in the latest news about OneSchool and Digital Learning Materials for example, news from just these two areas of the strategy will appear on the home page.
