The portal is developing into a valuable resource for Primary ICT co-ordinators, as well as teachers who are trying to incorporate ICT learning across other curriculum subjects. We sign-post all kinds of web tools that can help enhance teaching and learning, with a growing bank of ‘how-to’ videos to show how technology can be used in the classroom.
