MHK to query IT resources at Island schools

IT resources for students and pupil and teacher numbers in schools will be questioned by an MHK tomorrow.

Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper will quiz Education, Sport & Culture Minister, Dr Alex Allinson MHK, on both matters when the House of Keys convenes again in Douglas tomorrow morning from 10am.

In questions for written reply, Mr Hooper wants to know how much additional funding has been invested in IT equipment for students in each of the last five years.

Meanwhile, he'll also ask the minister what the pupil to teacher ratio has been in each of the Isle of Man's primary and seconday schools at the start of each of the last five school years.
