@ianaddison #ukedchat is it the doing that is taught or the
understanding of what makes quality that is encouraged?

@bevevans22 And do they have major ICT skills challenges
themselves? #ukedchat
mberry 20:53
@kvnmcl Yes, the irony had struck me too. 'technology' doesn't make
it in to the PoS either. To be fair 'communicate' does. #ukedchat
Ideas_Factory 20:53
@Catriona_O #ukedchat Of course-most of ICT is not tech anyway-just
creative ways to use it!

can meet both demands. pupils must come first IMHO

@ForesterJo @philallman1 Time needs to be built in. INSET etc.
Serious consideration and time needs to be added in #ukedchat

Resources (kit) vital. If a laptop in everyhome why not for every year 4
kid for example. Only 250m-same as child trust fund. #ukedchat

@DeputyMitchell We need to send you in with some of your kids! That
would convince them of use of tech in other subjects! #ukedchat
