Technology at UHS
Arbor
We use a cashless catering system through Arbor. Please top up your child’s account through Arbor.
Office 365
Every student at Uxbridge High School gets a UHS email address and access to Office365. Students can download Microsoft Office on up to 5 PCs or laptops and 5 mobile devices, thus allowing you to have free access to MS Word and PowerPoint from home. Students will also be given a OneDrive where you can store documents online and access them outside of school through your computer or mobile. You will also have online classrooms in Microsoft Teams where you will be able to watch video lessons and talk to your teachers and friends online. Sometimes you will be expected to submit your work online to your teacher.
DPR
DPR is an innovative new programme that allows both students and parents top monitor progress in lessons. Each student will be placed on a Pathway when they begin in Year 7. They will then work through a series of Kos (Knowledge Objectives) that have been identified as the key knowledge and skills required to be successful in each subject.
All homework for Year 7 will also be set on DPR. Students access this using their Microsoft 365 login details that they receive when joining the school.
Bedrock Learning
Bedrock Learning supplies the school with a bespoke literacy course that is
designed to increase students’ Literacy and grammar skills significantly. Students will also sign in using their 365 account and will complete 40 minutes per week of Literacy and grammar. The series of fun and interactive tasks allow students to start at their own skill base and work at their own speed as the programme constantly adapts to meet their needs.
