The Ultranet is an online learning platform that connects students, teachers, and parents. It allows sharing of information and resources to support learning. Students can set goals, collaborate online, and submit work for feedback. Teachers can design activities, provide feedback, and access student data. Parents will have access to their child's profile, attendance, homework, and feedback. They can also see school news and events. Strict privacy controls prevent access to any information other than a student's own or the school they attend. The school will provide parents with login information by February so they can access the Ultranet and monitor their child's progress.
