Lucky pupils from Arnold School will have the world at the tips of their fingers thanks to a groundbreaking new teaching method. The independent school in Lytham Road, South Shore, has announced all Year 7 pupils will be given an Apple iPad when they join the school from September. The state-of-the-art tablet computers will be dished out not only for pupils to use in school and for homework, they will actually become the property of the child.

Headteacher Jim Keefe said: “This is a really exciting educational initiative and we can’t wait to get them in school.
