ICT at Thomas Bennett Community College

The ICT Department in Thomas Bennett Community College are extremely proud of the achievements of students recently. Over the past year they have succeeded not only in achieving fantastic grades and improving on last year, but also have been nationally recognised for the work they have created.

They have contributed with a range of ICT publications, websites, computer games, flash products, eportfolios, robotic programs and much more!

This has seen the school awarded with the ICT Mark, being invited to join the ICT Register, a part of the Leading Leaders Network and also receiving a National Excellence award for the 'Learning Experience' offered by the college. Everyone associated with the school and department are grateful for the huge amount of time and hard work that the students have dedicated to helping.

We look forward to more success in the next twelve months!
