What is GCSE ICT and what can
you expect to gain from doing this course? .......
At Hornsea School & Sixth Form Centre, ICT is becoming
an essential tool for students in all areas of their
studies. From year 7 through to the Sixth Form there
is growing evidence of the developing integration of
ICT into our curriculum. There are a number of factors
that need to be managed to help achieve our goal of
a well-mapped, complete integration of ICT into our
curriculum. These factors include:
1. Providing training for staff
2. Supporting staff as they endeavour to become more
confident, competent users of ICT tools and resources
3. Facilitating the exchange of ideas between staff
4. Developing a reliable, scalable, secure, school-wide
network
5. Ensuring that access to equipment is as easy as
possible
6. Ensuring that the equipment is in good working
order.
7. Providing a good foundation course in ICT for the
students in Key Stage3.
8. Encouraging students to explore the possibilities
of using ICT outside timetabled lessons.
The aim of this site
is to provide an insight into the areas of our curriculum
where ICT is being used. It is anticipated that the
details described will need updating on a regular basis
reflecting the fluid nature of the use of ICT across
the subjects.
The School Mission
Statement
To create a caring environment in which students, staff
and parents work together to enable students of all
abilities reach their maximum potential and develop
self-esteem, confidence and maturity.
