Arthur Phillip High School is a public secondary school in Parramatta, Australia serving 1,500 students in grades 7-12.
Students at Arthur Phillip hail from 65 different countries and 90% speak a language other than English at home.
Five years ago, Arthur Phillip began exploring options to embrace digital education. At the time, the Australian Government’s Digital Education Revolution (DER) provided all high school students in Year 9 – 12 with a laptop.
The staff at Arthur Phillip built upon this initiative by creating an online, interactive digital learning environment for their teachers and students. In 2014, Arthur Phillip partnered with Google to provide Chromebooks and Apps to every student, moving its entire digital learning platform to the cloud.
