Highland Tour

Over the last 3 days I have been visiting schools in Highland Region with whom we will be working over the coming months.  The enthusiasm and hospitality from everyone I met was brilliant and nothing, I’m sure, to do with the hardware and software that goes with the project!( although one school did take great delight in calling me “wii man”)

My journey took me just over 600 miles and 3 days from Castletown, just outside Thurso to Alvie, just outside  Aviemore, via Dornoch, Dingwall and Merkinch in Inverness.  Every school was different in many ways (in fact one school had almost twice as many primary sevens as another had pupils) and served a wide range of catchments;  but everyone showed a real commitment to embracing technology to enhance  learning and teaching and were in no doubt to the impact it might have on their children.  I am really looking forward to working with the schools over the coming months and will post regular updates on our progress.
