Becta ICT Excellence Award, Self- Review and ICT mark

The process of self- review in terms of ICT maturity in your school should be a good one. Targets for Development Planning and for improvement can be identified with some degree of objectivity and reality. It could be a benchmarking activity on which to base future development.
Gaining an ICT Mark would be a way of recording and rewarding staff for their efforts and a way of raising the profile of the school with pupils and parents.
