Language no barrier for these students

SHAW Houset teachers swapped notes with their continental counterparts when they travelled to Austria to meet a delegation of Czech educationalists. During the visit the teachers were able to observe Austrian students working on European projects on the Internet, which will soon be accesse by Berkshire pupils.
The possibility of electronic communication between schools in Austria and Newbury was also discussed. Wendy Sturgess, head of careers at Shaw House, commented: "The message which came through was that Information Technology is definitely the new language of Europe. "Communication barriers pale into insignificance once you have logged on to the Cyber world of the lnternet."
