What is ICT capability, why should a school develop it and how can it be achieved? Developing the ICT Capable School responds to these questions from the perspective of school managers, ICT co-ordinators, teachers and pupils. It builds a vision of a type of school which is still very rare: a school where it is natural for everyone to apply ICT in the daily activities of teaching, learning and administration. The authors analyse the current problems concerning ICT in primary and secondary schools. The focus is on developing a strong culture of ICT within schools without special technology funding, through strong management, effective co-ordination, radical changes in teachers' practices and providing continuity in pupils' learning between schools and between home and school. The book will provide readers with: greater understanding of personal ICT capability; knowledge of effective management, teaching methods and co-ordination strategies for ICT; understanding of the importance of a whole-school approach to improving ICT capability. Developing the ICT Capable School will be invaluable to senior management and governors in primary and secondary schools, ICT co-ordinators in schools, trainee teachers with ICT as a specialism and FE/HE lecturers concerned with ICT and school improvement.
