HC Deb 21 November 1995 vol 267 c100W
Mrs. Anne Campbell

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what plans she has to ensure that teachers are properly trained in the use of information technology. [18]

Mr. Robin Squire

The Government's criteria for initial teacher training require that newly qualified teachers should be able to make effective use of information technology as a learning resource. The Teacher Training Agency has identified support for teachers using information technology as one of the national priorities to be addressed through its action programme for continuing professional development.
