Naace Strategic Conference 2007

Robin Ball, Manager Learning Services and Andy Tyerman, Assistant Director Content, Becta

Following the Learning Platform Services framework announcement I will focus on engagement and implementation for schools and institutions. The deployment of Learning Platform technologies, a central theme to the delivery of the e-Strategy, needs to be carefully planned and manager through a clear statement of requirements for the institution and its learners. We will address the development of a strategic vision using available tools and resources to support the process of change management

Margaret Wright, Adviser for ICT, QCA

The Education and Skills white papers proposed reviews of the ICT curriculum and ICT general qualifications in schools, including GCSE and GCE A Level. In addition, two new qualifications were proposed, one for functional skills in ICT and another, the specialised diploma in ICT. These changes are due for implementation in 2008 and 2009. This session will explore the curriculum and qualifications proposals and prompt thinking about what they might mean for the learner.
