Norfolk schools will have received their conference brochures for the 2010 E2BN conference in the last few days.  The summer conference is always a great occasion to catch up with the latest thinking on learning with ICT.  Keynotes include Dale Banham and Prof. Stephen Heppel.

This year's conference 'This Generation's Learning' will look at learner entitlement and how ICT has been used across the curriculum to offer new challenges to pupils of all abilities, both in school and at home.

Delegates can:
  • Sample the latest technology through hands-on workshops
  • Have access to a range of practical advice and assistance
  • See examples of how innovation and best practice is transforming education in schools across the region
  • Discuss and debate topical issues
There are already quite a few colleagues from Norfolk booked, so you'll be in good company.

Head teachers and chairs of governors have today received the Norfolk e-learning strategy 2010-14 as part of the e-courier.  The document outlines the vision for Norfolk developed by schools and the local authority and prioritises a shift in pegagogy as well as technical provision.  It also includes an entitlement for our young people.  Please find the full copy online.

Last call for application packs to be sent to eligible families...

The Home Access has been very successful with over 200,000 grants awarded. Based on current application return rates it is unlikely that we will be sending out application packs for the main programme after the third week of June. We would strongly encourage any families who think they are eligible for a Home Access Grant to apply without further delay and anyone with an application form at home should complete it and send it back immediately.
