Lewis Smallwood, a year 9 pupil at Clevedon School in North Somerset, has created an iPad app called the Clevedon School Handbook – and it has been accepted by Apple’s App Store.
Designed to help new year 7s settle into the school, the free app features everything from an interactive map of the school site to the rules and regulations. It has already been downloaded by more than 300 people.
“It all started when Lewis was in year 8,” Mark Anderson, leader of digital learning at Clevedon School, told SecEd.
“His dream was to have an app in Apple’s App Sore. We talked about what he could do and collectively we came up with the idea of an app containing everything that year 7s need to know when they arrive at the school.”
