UK Pupils to get free home computers - BBC
The first 20,000 youngsters to benefit from plans to ensure all of England's school-age children have computer access at home have been earmarked. The £300m scheme will be piloted among pupils from low-income families in Suffolk and in Oldham from February. Grants will pay for a computer, software, internet access for one year and three years' technical support. Schools Minister Jim Knight also wants IT firms to offer cheap deals to all pupils aged seven to 18 in those areas.
