ICT help

This section offers help with some basic skills and guidance on making the most of your ICT resources. We hope you will find it useful for your teaching and professional development. If you cannot find the answer here, your ICT department may be able to help - or you can contact us by email or ring our helpdesk during normal office hours on 0115 944 8330.

The Lancashire Consortium section contains materials used to support the ICT Training for English teachers delivered to the Lancashire Consortium (NOF training), including additional guidance on meeting the specific requirements of that course.
