Becta unveils new Next Generation Learning website

Education technology agency Becta has launched its Next Generation Learning campaign web site, as part of its drive to parents, learners and employers to get the most out of technology in education.

New on the Next Generation Learning website is a postcode search facility for parents to find out which schools in their area are using technology effectively.
The Next Generation Learning website is a key part of the national campaign that aims to encourage schools, colleges and learning providers to consider how they can use technology to support teaching.
In September Gordon Brown announced a key component in the campaign – a bid to ensure every learner in the UK has access to a computer and the internet at home through the Home Access programme.
Further information on how families will be able to benefit is also on the website.
