LIS in the Press

Read an article about implementation of AI at school in an interview with our very own Learning Technology Support Specialist here.
Clinton Glenn, Learning Technology Support Specialist at LIS, oversees the effective and responsible use of technology across the entire school. His role focuses on ensuring that digital tools and platforms are thoughtfully implemented to support learning outcomes, align with the curriculum, and reflect international best practice. Working closely with teachers and school leaders, Mr Glenn helps integrate technology in ways that enhance teaching and learning while always keeping the best interests, wellbeing and development of students at the centre of decision-making.

What do our parents say?

What I love about LIS is the energy. There’s real engagement between students, teachers and parents, and so many opportunities to be involved in school life. It’s a dynamic, forward-looking community that’s never just content with the status quo and is always striving to grow.
