FOLLOWING an extensive external assessment, Tardebigge School has proved it is switched on to using information and communications technology (ICT).
The school has been awarded the prestigious ICT Mark by Becta, the British Education Communications and Technology Agency, the Government-funded body responsible for promoting the use of ICT in Britain's schools and colleges.
The award recognises the school's success in developing the strategic use of ICT in both administration and across the curriculum.
Headteacher Susan Helps said: "We are delighted to be awarded the ICT Mark.
"It recognises our positive approach to ICT and the benefits it is bringing to our children.
"We believe that ICT can be used in every aspect of learning and that it is essential our children are equipped for the modern world."
Neil McLean, executive director for Educational Practice at Becta, said: "Tardebigge School thoroughly deserves the accolade of an ICT mark.
"Its investment in new technology has contributed to substantial improvements in learning."
