We believe that it is very important for pupils to use computers to learn how to learn and work better, rather than just use them to become computer literate. We also consider ICT to be a powerful means of enriching and enhancing the delivery of all subjects across the curriculum.

The ICT Department is dedicated to providing an ICT education which enables every pupil to fulfil his/her best potential and prepares pupils for their future roles as competent ICT users.
