During the last half term holiday Mr Bodie and Mr Bower installed 33 new computers into room 9.

These are modern computers with flats 17inch screens, optical mice and a fast processor. The students have been using the computers during lesson times, lunch time club and after school on a Tuesday and Wednesday from 3.00pm to 5.00pm.

This is a sample of what the students think:

“The flat screen design allows pupils to enjoy an easy way to access their work and material on the computer without affecting their eyesight much at all!” Dominic Houghton 9/LD/JW/23C

“We have found that the new computer have made it better in ICT because the old computers were really big and the new computers give us more space to work in.” Damien Barker Revell 7/ad/hb-10h

“The computers are a lot faster.  If you have loads of windows open the computer does not slow down.” James Marsh 7/2 BK-PL-D7H

“They have made the online tests easier because the screen makes it easier to read the text and now I have got a B grade GCSE.” Chris Harper AD/HB/10H

“The new computer have made it easier to complete my ICT  coursework I have managed to get 4 A grades on the last four pieces of coursework.” Ashley Wood PW/JL/9C
