Charles DarwinSchool Ofsted “The school has made a heavy financial commitment to ICT, particularly over the current and last financial year. Throughout the school ICT is used extensively by students and staff. Students’ skills are developed to advanced standards as they use computers in the majority of their subjects to research, record and present information. In many subject areas, teachers work together to produce a joint strategy that very effectively incorporates the teaching and learning of ICT skills within their curriculum area. Students use ICT particularly effectively in art and design, geography, mathematics and music. “
