Children at Clifton Green Primary School in York are at the forefront of using information and communications technology (ICT) to enhance their work, and that's official.
Following an extensive external assessment Clifton Green has been awarded the prestigious ICT Mark by Becta, the government-funded body responsible for promoting the use of ICT in Britain's schools and colleges.
The award recognises the school's success in developing the strategic use of ICT in both administration and across the curriculum.
Mike Holroyde, Senior Adviser for ICT, said: “City of York Council is determined that all local children will have the best opportunity to excel in the jobs market of the future. “Clifton Green should be congratulated on this wonderful achievement. This demonstrates the excellent ICT management and teaching that is taking place in local schools.”
