ICT

As computers have an increasing role in the world of industry and communications it is important that pupils should have a solid foundation in their use and know how to avoid their misuse and Leweston is well-positioned to do this being well-equipped with modern PC computer hardware and software.

The school network connects all buildings using the latest fibre-optic technology. There are two dedicated computer network rooms as well as ten network stations in the music department and the newly designed school library boasts seventeen network stations, an e-beam interactive whiteboard and a projector connected to a network PC for lessons/presentations. There are several interactive e-beam whiteboards elsewhere in the school and a mobile projector available for class use. The conference room offers video facilities whereas the school theatre acts as a larger venue for whole school presentations.

Pupils have access to computers both during and outside their normal lessons and each pupil has a personal school email account from which they can contact their friends and family.
