Topic: Overview

Protons and neutrons are present in a small, dense nucleus at the center of the atom. The positively charged nucleus is surrounded by negatively charged electrons.

here’s a lot of talk around how VR can provide a more unique and immersive learning experience and it’s certainly very true. Right now teachers are looking for new ways to help them engage students and VR can help meet that need.
But as VR becomes more widely used, the content must go beyond simple ‘virtual tours’. Tours are great at taking you to another time, place or moment, but in many ways they’re limited. In order to work in education there needs to be a deeper level of interaction so VR can become effective as a supplementary classroom learning tool. Companies will have to make sure that all VR teaching and materials are designed to link to relevant curriculums in order to prove effectiveness and show schools the clear benefits of using the technology for teachers and learners.

t Albans School has launched a new website to provide better access to key information to parents and prospective parents, as well as delivering improved navigation and greater engagement across the news and events from the School.

Each of the sections – Lower School, Third Form, Middle School and Sixth Form – includes an introduction from the Head of School and a pupil video. The Information and About Us sections focus on the calibre of the teaching staff as well as the Pastoral Care and Co-curricular activities offered at the School.

The new website, built by Cookham-based Pistachio Design, coincides with the recent rebranding of the School that has been designed to give it a more contemporary, elegant look for the future. Based around the School’s motto ‘Born not for ourselves’, the crest has been stripped back and made more symmetrical to give it a cleaner, fresher look. The School’s Reflex Blue has been replaced with a darker blue, and the School’s primary yellow has been retained. The School’s fonts have also been updated.
Jonathan Gillespie, Headmaster at St Albans School said: “The new website and rebrand herald a new chapter in the School’s ability to effectively communicate with both prospective parents and current parents as well as the wider community and media. “The website delivers a more dynamic and user friendly experience while our updated branding retains the known elements and character of St Albans School’s style. I am delighted that we will be able to better showcase all that the School offers, making it even easier for current and prospective parents to understand why St Albans School is so special.”
