E-Access, E-Maturity, E-Safety

This NFER report, commissioned by Becta, is a large-scale, independent survey of learners’ uses of new technologies. Becta was particularly interested in finding out whether and how learners use technologies for learning at school and at home, and whether learners were using these technologies safely. The research produced a wide array of findings about learner’s e-access, e-maturity and e-security. Leadership Briefing Issue 5.01 (49)

EFA – Global Monitoring Report 2010

Education systems in many of the world's poorest countries are now experiencing the aftermath of the global economic downturn. The 2010 Education for All Global Monitoring Report, commissioned by UNESCO, argues that the crisis could create a lost generation of children whose life chances will have been irreparably damaged by a failure to protect their right to education. The Report examines who these children are and why they are being left behind, and looks at concrete solutions for making sure that no children are excluded from schooling.

The programme provided them with computer equipment and connectivity equivalent to that which was available to their classmates. Leadership Briefing Issue 5.01 (49)
