1,000th school gets ICT Mark

Earlier this month St Dunstan's Cheam Church of England Primary School, in Sutton, Surrey, became the 1,000th school to be awarded the ICT Mark.

Created in 2006, the ICT Mark recognises schools that make good use of technology to raise effectiveness and efficiency throughout school life: pupil assessment, learning and teaching, staff development, leadership and management. Becta research has found that, in Ofsted inspection reports, schools with the ICT Mark are four times more likely to be rated ‘outstanding’ for overall effectiveness. The research has also shown that pupils at ICT Mark schools achieve better results.
The Becta press release has more details.
