  4. Key Factors to Accessibility • Laptops for Teachers scheme – including school’s own investment in additional laptops • USB pen drives • Ensuring that the network works all the time – having someone to give the network tender loving care to make sure equipment works. • Inset training onsite on the school’s own network, range of software and equipment • Keeping the technology simple until staff are ready to move on. • Planned introduction of equipment such as IWB’s • Access to Webmail from home

  5. Whole School Involvement • Planning and created resources are stored on our ‘Shared Work’ area on our network • Use school website for teachers to showcase the work they are doing in all subjects • Staff have opportunities to use ICT equipment for assemblies and PE

  6. Fun • Introduce the fun elements of ICT first and fun to use equipment such as microscopes and digital cameras • Software should be easily accessible and easy to learn not just for pupils but for staff • Developing a good library of software and involve teachers in the software purchase process • Use teacher’s strengths to help develop their ICT skills • Praise and encouragement also works for teachers
