  2. ICTIN SCHOOLS-IMPACT OF GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES • The combined impact of government initiatives for ICT in schools has been significant. • The outcomes of the initiatives are more evident in improvements in pupils’ achievements in ICT capability than in their application of this learning in other subjects. • The gap between the best and worst ICT provision is unacceptably wide and increasing. • The training programme funded by NOF continued to disappoint in relation to its stated intentions, although it stimulated higher levels of ICT competence amongst staff.

  3. ICTIN SCHOOLS-IMPACT OF GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES • Where schools provided their own training for staff, sometimes with the help of external agents, it was generally more effective than the NOF funded training. • The level of technical support varies widely between schools. • The government’s initial target of connecting 20% of schools to Broadband by August 2002 was met by the Regional Broadband Consortia. • There has been continuing improvement in the quality and extent of support for ICT by LEAs.
