HARNESSING TECHNOLOGY GRANT

Quite a few schools are now paying for their Zut subscription using a new grant called Harnessing Technology. This grant replaces eLCs funding. Bear in mind, you might need to take up a 2 year subscription in one go as "The grant must be spent on the acquisition of productive assets that will have a life longer than the financial year they are purchased".

You can find more information on the following websites:

NEW MATERIAL

We have also added 20 new Flash exercises for KS3 and KS4 and 10 more topic based videos for Years 12 and 13.

We are adding now transcripts of the news videos.

FUTURE PLANS

We are working on new topics for the new A'level, such as les arts, la mode, la musique, les organisations caritatives....We will be added more video based exercises for Year 12 and 13 in the near future.

We are still working on a Flash version of most of our exercises which should make our sites more fun for pupils to use.

Please, do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any suggestions on how we could improve our sites.
