ICT in the Scottish school

The school in Scotland which i visited belonged to a very pure area of the town. Despite that the school had invesigated a lot in ICT and the school building was built just a couple of years ago. I think this is very positive. The first day I was visiting the school I wondered if the teachers really used the Activeboards which could be found in every single classroom. But the teachers really did use their Activeboards active. Me and my friends visited almost every class in the school from the nursery up to Primary seven (I think) and every single teacher was using the Activeboard active during their lessons. In the nursery the pupils were aloud to play games at the activeboard with easy counting games or listening to songs (when they were choosing to listen to a song they all sang with). So, despite that the school was a bit pure, they had investigated a lot in ICT. Every classroom had one Activeboard and at least one computer from Apple. The school also had their own computer room where the teachers could reserve for lessons where the pupils was in need of their own computer.
