What the college says

The ICT department consists of a number of dedicated ICT suites, each containing up-to-date equipment including PCs, scanners, laser printers and interactive display boards. The department also has an extensive library of software ranging from word processing, spreadsheet, presentation and database applications to audio visual, animation and desk top processing. This allows students a wide range of choice in how to produce work in order to satisfy learning outcomes. We have also invested in a number of digital still and video cameras in addition to green screen capabilities allowing for special effects to be created. In addition open study areas, the library and a wireless network allows students to access their work both in and out of lessons.
