New @harrisacdundee S2 have been deciding their own success criteria on their instruments and have been rating themselves out of 5 stars. So great to see the stars on the up when rating them lesson after lesson. 🌟🌟#dundeelearning

Fantastic workshop with our @harrisacdundee digital leaders today. Talked a lot about AI and how it can be used to positively shape education! Our young people were a credit to the school! 🤘🏻🤘🏻 @DundeeLearning

[Mr Haxton @MrHaxton]

Simra, Ishika and I had a fantastic time working with some of @blacknessps P7s. We talked about transferable skills and even got to see some of the jobs that our skills are well suited to. Great work everyone! 🤘 @harrisacdundee @theharrispledge #dundeelearning

[Mr Haxton @MrHaxton]

National 5 music had great fun organising concepts into different categories today as a revision tool. Great conversations had about concepts that weren’t as confident as others and need some attention before the exam! @harrisacmusdram @harrisacdundee

[Mr Haxton @MrHaxton]

I’ve been so impressed with all our @harrisacdundee @harrisacmusdram young people since the start of term. A big well done goes to 2D and Sana from team @forresharrisac for utilising the ‘Buddy’ part of the 6 B’s to promote learner independence! 🐝🐝#dundeelearning
