With the new Curriculum Guidance for the Foundation Stage  just been published by the DfEE, we wanted to support teachers in developing their ICT with this important age group. As we knew little about it ourselves, we set up a working party to research this area. The findings will be disseminated at a meeting for Foundation years teachers in the Summer term 2001, and on the Internet. Details of how the working party progresses will also be published at this address.

First working party meeting - November 14th 2000
Second working party meeting - December 12th 2000

Below you can find details of the course provided for ICT in the Foundation Years at Sir Robert Hitcham's Primary School

To recommend, and advise in, the use of ICT software and hardware for the Foundation Stage.

There will be a choice of three afternoon sessions for one Reception and/or one Nursery teacher from each school to attend.

There may possibly be places, although not funded, for Nursery Nurses or Learning Support Assistants, depending on numbers, to attend as well. Please state on the form if you are interested in these extra places.
