"Engaging with home access"

Friday 20th November 2009
One Great George Street, Westminster, London SW1P 3AA

 
 

This autumn, the Government’s Home Access programme will be rolled out; giving many low income families the opportunity to have a computer and the Internet at home.  Schools now need to engage with the programme and this conference will help you make the right decisions over what level of engagement is right for you. Our line-up of speakers will clarify :
  • Becta’s approach to achieving high levels of take-up and reducing the digital divide.
  • How the e-Learning Foundation can support schools who want to help their families make the most of this opportunity – and take it further, to universal access 
  • How schools are presenting the message to parents
  • The role that Local Authorities will play in the Home Access programme
  • How schools can work with the Managed Service Provider who will manage the application process
  • Where Home Access fits into the bigger “Digital Britain” picture
Throughout the day there will be opportunities to ask questions, share experiences and network with other delegates. Our exhibitors will be featuring the latest technology and related offerings. The conference will end with the e-Learning Foundation Home Access awards presentation followed by a champagne reception – all included in your ticket price.

The Home Access programme will be live by the time of this conference, and the opportunities available to schools and Local Authorities to support their families are significant, provided you can engage in the most effective way...

…miss this conference and you will miss the chance to make the most of the opportunities.
