Information Regarding Harnessing Technology Funding (20%)
In MI Sheet MI 25/09 we indicated that 20% of the Harnessing Technology Grant (Commissioned Element of Funding) would be made available to schools for curriculum development projects. Projects could attract funding of up to £20000.
The intended outcomes of these projects must be improved learning and teaching, raised achievement and high quality online learning and teaching resources shared on the Norfolk Learning Platforms. To ensure a coherent and successful approach to this exciting development there are detailed criteria and processes as well as support and guidance. There will be termly opportunities for project submissions to the Learning Platform Board during 2009/10.
If you want to find out more and think you might like to be involved, we are inviting schools to one of 3 briefing sessions taking place on:
