Case Study: Riga English Grammar School achieves modern, technology-driven learning with Microsoft Corporation

Using modern teaching methods to hone 21st century skills

Riga English Grammar School in Latvia wanted to give every high school pupil the chance to learn through technology and build 21st-century skills like thinking, communication, cooperation, and creativity. With support from Microsoft Corporation and the “Ready for Tomorrow” education project, the school equipped students with tablets and used Microsoft Office 365 and Power BI to increase engagement and motivation.

Microsoft Corporation helped Riga English Grammar School implement a modern learning environment where students use Office 365 for studies, Power BI for research projects, and Skype for Classroom for remote learning activities. The result was broader access to technology-enabled learning and greater student interest in lessons, giving pupils practical digital skills and a measurable advantage for future studies and work.
