Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
Younger children play with a wide variety of toys and artefacts with an electronic dimension because anything with a chip constitutes ICT! In September 2003 the first interactive whiteboard was installed and in February 2005 the project was completed.
Every class in Watlington Primary now has an interactive whiteboard, three computers a digital camera and music player.
The use of ICT is planned carefully to support all other areas of the curriculum. The children readily use ICT for research in all subjects and are allowed to use the Internet, under the supervision of an adult. We recognise the enormous potential of ICT and the new age of discovery and want our children to use it to best effect.
