Web App of the Week – Woodland Middle School Academy - UK

Web App of the Week is an award for outstanding users of Accessit Library. It’s a place to recognise nice-looking, useful user interfaces and is somewhere to turn to for inspiration.

This week Claire Bavister marvels us with her mastery of library communication. Woodland Middle School Academy’s Web App is a highly functional message board, as well as a comprehensive catalogue that can be accessed by pupils anywhere with an internet connection.

Claire has also built a functional click and delivery service that enables children to order books from their classroom, which the library then delivers. This saves the school unnecessary contact and helps keep the children reading in the classroom and reading for pleasure.

“During the first lockdown I got the Web App up and running which enables the children to be able to browse and order the books. I was then able to place their order and deliver the books to the classrooms. With our old system we wouldn’t have been able to do this. I also love the fact that pupils can access the Web App at any time, this is a great way for me to communicate reading achievements, promote books and just include any relevant information I think they should know.”
When asked what she likes the most about Accessit Library, Claire says:
“I like the way it is simple to use and the immediate help that is available through the customer portal. I also like the tutorials you can access through the customer portal, and ALeC, Accessit’s eLearning Centre.

The Web App is my favourite though as it’s such a valuable tool to communicate with all the children and to constantly update with new and exciting information.”

There’s no shortage of information on Woodland’s Web App, that’s for sure.

Woodland Middle School Academy has chosen an information rich approach when setting up their Web App. There are so many other ways that you can use your Web App too. That’s what makes Accessit Library so dynamic, user friendly and appealing to pupils, teachers, and librarians alike.

Accessit Library is truly a whole school resource that enhances digital classrooms, allows parents to make book choices with their children and provides multitudes of reporting options to demonstrate reading progress to the SLT and OFSTED.

For more inspiration, have a look at other Web Apps from the United Kingdom that have been featured in Web App of the Week:

Durrington High School
Bishop’s Hatfield Girls’ School
Broadland High Ormiston Academy

It features a free download pack with images and interactive content, designed to give the Accessit Library user an engaging and informative learning experience.

    “Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand. Observed on 25th April each year, Anzac Day was originally devised to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who served in the Gallipoli Campaign, their first engagement in the First World War (1914–1918).”
    – Sourced from Wikipedia

    Web App of the Week - Sarah Bonnell School - UK

    Web App of the Week is an award for outstanding users of Accessit Library. It’s a place to recognise nice-looking, useful user interfaces and is somewhere to turn to for inspiration.

    This week we are focusing in on Sarah Bonnell School’s World Book Day themed Web App. For those readers that don’t know about World Book Day, here is some information about it, taken from their website:

    World Book Day changes lives through a love of books and shared reading. Our mission is to promote reading for pleasure, offering every child and young person the opportunity to have a book of their own. Reading for pleasure is the single biggest indicator of a child’s future success – more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational background or their income. We want to see more children, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, with a life-long habit of reading for pleasure and the improved life chances this brings them.”

    – From worldbookday.com

    Sarah Bonnell School’s World Book Day themed Web App is comprehensive and engaging. It has reading challenges, multiple twitter feeds, promotional banners, and features book recommendations from their librarians.

    Like all schools in the United Kingdom, Sarah Bonnell has adapted their library to assist home learning. They’ve subscribed to 3rd party content suppliers such as Wheelers eBooks and set up a new click and delivery service. When asked how Accessit Library helped them with this, Poonampal said:

    “The latest reservation and quarantine mode update worked well and has definitely helped set up my click and deliver service. Also integrating Wheelers into the Accessit program has helped to channel all borrowing in one area. Using the landing page as a point of getting notifications out to students has been useful.”
    Sarah Bonnell School also uses Accessit Library to support lessons through Google Classrooms.
    “I have Google Classrooms set up as learning hub support rooms where the students contact me with any queries of issues they may have about the learning hub.”

    Accessit Library is truly a whole school resource that enhances digital classrooms, allows parents to make book choices with their children and provides multitudes of reporting options to demonstrate reading progress to the SLT and OFSTED.

    For more inspiration, have a look at other Web Apps from the United Kingdom that have been featured in Web App of the Week:

    Durrington High School
    Bishop’s Hatfield Girls’ School
    Broadland High Ormiston Academy

      Librarian Talk – Claire Bavister – Woodland Middle School Academy

      Welcome to Librarian Talk, the place where librarians get to talk about their roles, their unique situations and how Accessit Library has helped them. This week, we speak with Claire Bavister, school librarian from Woodland Middle School Academy about how she makes the most of Accessit Library.

      “I have been a children’s librarian for about 6 years now. As to be expected, I am an avid reader of all fiction. Outside of work I enjoy running, going for long walks and meeting up with friends.”

      Claire Bavister

      School Librarian, Woodland Middle School Academy, UK

      What character in a book has influenced you the most?

      Hermione Granger.

      Tell us about your library! What makes it unique?

      Our library is the heart of our school. It is a very welcoming, cosy place to be. The children can relax on beanbags and settees surrounded by colourful posters and there are display boards highlighting their reading achievements. We use the Accelerated Reader program to ensure that all children in the school read regularly. We also have weekly library lessons to monitor reading and recommend new titles. We celebrate Harry Potter and Roald Dahl day by transforming the library into the respective themes. This is a huge event and the children love coming in on those days to take part in all the activities ranging from magic spells to treasure hunts.

      What is a challenge that you faced in your library recently?

      The recent challenge I have faced is: How to get books to children during lockdown and before that, how to work with classroom bubbles.

      How did Accessit Library help you solve this challenge?

      Accessit Library solved this for us. During the first lockdown, I got the Web App up and running which enabled the children to browse and order books. I was then able to place their order and deliver their books to their classroom. With our old system, we could not do this.

      I also love that pupils can access the Web App at any time, from anywhere. This is a great way for me to communicate reading achievements, promote books and just include any relevant information I think they should know.

      How has your attitude changed towards the challenge you solved with Accessit Library, now that you’ve worked through it?

      The click and delivery service is running very smoothly. It’s lovely to see how excited the children get when they hear the trolley rumbling towards their classrooms with the latest delivery of books. The children know they can order books whenever they like and know they will be delivered every day. When the books are returned, we use quarantine mode before putting them back into circulation.

      What do you like the most about Accessit Library?

      I like that it is simple to use. I also like the immediate help and tutorials that are available in the customer portal.

      The Web App is my favourite feature. It’s such a valuable tool to communicate with all the children and to keep up to date with new and exciting information.

      How does Accessit Library support the academic outcomes of your school?

      Accessit Library ensures that our ethos of whole school reading is maintained to a high standard by allowing us to regularly communicate reading achievements to teaching staff.

      A lockdown success story

      Claire is one of the many librarians across the UK that has used Accessit Library to overcome the challenges of lockdown. She has achieved this by continuing to offer reading materials and homework support for students and parents using our innovative Web App. Accessit Library also enables her to highlight the many online supports the school library brings to classrooms in the cloud.

      Librarian Talk – Mary McGavin – Fulham Prep School

      Welcome to Librarian Talk, the place where Librarians get to talk about their roles, their unique situations and how Accessit Library has helped them. This week, we speak with Mary McGavin, school librarian from Fulham Prep School about how she makes the most of Accessit Library.
      “I am the school librarian at Fulham Prep and have been for almost 7 years! I sort of fell into the role having originally started working at the school as a supply teaching assistant. I was asked to be based in the library and have loved my time there ever since. I enjoy travelling, both around London, the country and the world and have really missed it this year. During the first lockdown I took up cross-stitching and am still painstakingly working on the first quarter of a large scene! Last year I undertook a course in teaching children with specific learning difficulties. Despite COVID-19 making everything difficult, I was able to complete the course and am now teaching children on a one to one basis. I’ve found that it’s been really helpful with my work in the library too which is an added bonus! “
      Mary McGavin

      School Librarian, Fulham Prep School, UK

      What character in a book has influenced you the most?

      I cannot pinpoint one character but the book that has influenced me and my role as librarian is ‘The Giggler Treatment’ by Roddy Doyle. It never fails to make even the most reluctant of readers laugh and reminds me that nothing is more important than reading for pleasure.

      Tell us about your library! What makes it unique?

      The library is in a large room in the middle of the school and it really does feel like the heart of the school. Last year, our library was transformed from a more traditional library will aisles of shelves to a tree-themed haven. We have a huge free-standing tree, a treehouse mezzanine area where the children enjoy cosying up on a bean bag with a good book and lots of snug-like areas. Aside from its appearance, I strive to make the library a welcoming environment, both for those who have already found the joy in reading and those who haven’t quite discovered it yet.

      What is a challenge that you faced in your library recently?

      It has to be shutting the library to visitors in March due to the first lockdown and navigating a click and delivery service since term began in September.

      How did Accessit Library help you solve this challenge?

      We moved our library management system over to Accessit Library during the summer which couldn’t have been more perfectly timed! It’s difficult to know how our library functioned properly before without the online presence it has now. It crucially has allowed the children to browse the library shelves online and continue to borrow books and get excited about reading.

      How has your attitude changed towards the challenge you solved with Accessit Library, now that you’ve worked through it?

      Considering this current environment and its impact on the school, if we were still with our previous library management system it would’ve been impossible to allow the students to borrow books from the library. What we have now is a fully functioning click and delivery system – whilst it’s not the same as having the children browse the physical bookshelves, it has solved the issue and I can’t see how Accessit Library can make it any easier! One child even commented that the click and delivery service is better than Amazon.

      What do you like the most about Accessit Library?

      I absolutely love the Web App – how you can curate it to suit your students, the events going on within the school and most importantly to publicise anything and everything book related. Gone are the days of putting up posters around school and the blu tack promptly being nabbed by small hands!

      How does Accessit Library support the academic outcomes of your school?

      It helps to set the children up with a love for reading, something they can talk passionately about when at interviews for their next school.

      A lockdown success story

      Mary is one of many librarians around the world that has used Accessit Library to facilitate learning and supplementing online lessons during lockdown. She is what we call a ‘lockdown success story’ and is one of hundreds of schools operating the library as close to business as usual as possible thanks to technology.

      Barker College is another lockdown success story. Read their story by clicking this link.
