Information and Communication Technology at Blundell's

Information for Pupils and Parents

ICT at Blundell's School has grown from a minimal part of the school curriculum into an essential element spread throughout the campus. Over the last 10 years the school governors have invested large sums of money to enable us to expand the facilities available to pupils, teachers and support staff. There are currently over 450 computers connected to the school network.

An ICT lesson in the Popham CentreThe facilities at Blundell's School are centred around the new Popham Centre. Within this centre are 60 networked PC's with printers capable of printing up to A1 in size, scanners and digital cameras available for those needing them. Outside of lessons the computers in the Library IT suites are all available for general use from 7am to 10pm weekdays and slightly shorter hours over the weekend.

In addition to this central facility there are four other IT rooms around the campus allowing whole class use of computing facilities.

The main school network covers Blundell's Senior School, Blundell's Prep School and the administrative centres. There is an ongoing expansion plan which will see all class rooms having access to the network, as will pupils in boarding houses.

This is an exciting time that we are living in and the IT department at Blundell's School is pushing the use of technology throughout the school.
