Case Study: Matthew Flinders Anglican College achieves seamless remote learning with Schoolbox

Matthew Flinders Anglican College achieves 95% parent support for remote learning with Schoolbox

Matthew Flinders Anglican College, a school on Australia's Sunshine Coast, faced the challenge of rapidly transitioning to remote learning for its 1,300 students due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The school needed to ensure a seamless continuation of quality education. The vendor, Schoolbox, provided its learning management system, which the school had branded as its 'MyFlinders' portal.

The solution involved leveraging the existing Schoolbox platform to maintain daily routines, share resources, and submit assessments. Schoolbox was integrated with Cisco WebEx for live lessons and a dedicated COVID-19 updates page kept the community connected. The implementation was supported by extensive training for staff and students. The results were overwhelmingly positive, with a survey showing 95% of primary parents found teacher instructions greatly supportive for remote learning. Schoolbox provided the integrated digital foundation that ensured the college's success.
