Garvin Tynes Primary:

At our school, the ICT’s available can be accessed by any member of staff at any given time as long as they are available. We use a register to sign for items. We must include the date taken and the date returned. There is no schedule set for use of technologies. It’s a first come, first served basis.    

As far as ICT’s available for students, those are accessed by them during scheduled class times and under supervision.

After school, an ICT could be signed out and used by teachers, but there must be an agreement set up to secure the item.

The only ICT facility we have would be the computer lab and library. These are constantly supervised by our librarian and computer teacher. There is a Promethean Board installed at our school, however it does not have a room of its own. They are, instead, mounted in two homeroom classes. They are still available to the entire school as the teachers whose classrooms they are in will switch with the person wanting use of it.

We don’t have a clear, handwritten policy about the use of ICT’s in our school. Instead it is just understood by everyone how they are managed. We work as a team sharing without monopolizing the ICT’s for longer than needed.
