Today was another opportunity for us to welcome headteachers from around the UK to our school and to talk strategically about our use and implementation of ICT, via the NCSL SLICT programme. We had five colleagues from Birmingham, North and South Leicestershire, Milton Keynes and London.

It was exciting to be able to talk about blogging and the use of wikis which was brought up in the previous day’s workshops. I was pleased to be able to realistically demonstrate how these new read/write tools may impact on the classroom. (By the way “wiki” is taken from the Hawaiian word “wikiwiki” meaning quick, hence you can quickly add your own contribution to this sort of web 2.o media)

It was another successful day and both Dave and I would like to thank our visitors for the positive feedback that they gave us before they left. We hope we can support and help in the future with your own school’s ICT challenges.
