UK school gets top mark for ICT quality

Oakfield Primary in St Mellons, Cardiff, is one of the first schools in the UK to receive a new Government quality mark for using information and communications technology to enhance learning.

The ICT Mark is awarded by Government agency Becta and recognises the success in developing a whole-school approach to ICT. According to Headteacher Dave Pedwell, they have been developing IT skills at the school for many years. Pupils are now very competent at using computers in all aspects of their school work.
