Solutions • Lack of confidence by some staff members: • In-house training • effective use of departmental planning sessions • reward system • Lack of parental support: • Open Days • Increased partnering with PTA & LSB to provide training sessions for parents • Safety of hardware: Sensitize students, parents, staff
Need for a dedicated support staff for proper supervision/ troubleshooting: • Timetable capable & willing personnel • Utilize resources of LSB/ Business community • Involve ICT Committee • Increase in the duties/ responsibilities of all staff: • Encourage buy-in of ICT programme • Use ICT to reduce workload (use of internet in the creation of lesson plans etc.), • Explore benefits of ICT to assist in classroom management etc.
Misuse of technology by students: • Increase monitoring • Promote positive use by students with the introduction of incentives such as awards/prizes • Enforcement of disciplinary measures
Plans for the Future • Short term (within 1 year): • Training of staff • Continued sensitization of students, parents • Use ICT to facilitate communication with parents • Medium term (2-3 years): • Upgrade of infrastructure • School Database • Long term (4-5 years): • Full integration of ICT • Digitization of all administrative files
