07032008.jpgConwy Education Services have provided every Primary and Special school within the Council with a site licence of Textease Studio CT, Timeline and Ideas Map , eleven tools in total. This will enable the schools to better meet the guidelines within the new Welsh Curriculum that comes into force in September 2008. Furthermore, the partnership agreement with Softease enables a Welsh version to be released later in the year.

All schools were invited to see Doug Dickinson inspire them by demonstrating the power of these tools at the Venue Cymru in Llandudno on Friday 7th March. 

This is an exciting project with further training planned to help the schools familiarize themselves with the whole suit of tools that they now have.�
