<div class="gmail_quote">I've got onto Ian Cruttenden (head honcho for NSSCF funding at DEECD) and got some useful info.<br><br>1. iPads <b>will</b> be counted as computers against the 1:1 ratio target.<br><br>2. The bad news is that iPads will <b>not</b> be on the NSSCF computer panel (at least, not <i>yet</i>) so the only NSSCF money we can use to buy them is the money left over from the $1250 after buying a "real" computer from the approved panel.<br>
<br>3. <b>Funding for future rounds of NSSCF will be announced next week</b>. There will be no application process like last time; funds will be applied automatically and in stages. <b>Funds will start going out late term 3 / early term 4.</b><br>
<br>Wacko! At last we know something so we can make decisions.<br>Mark<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Mark Kelly<br>Manager - Information Systems; Reporting Manager<br>McKinnon Secondary College<br>McKinnon Rd McKinnon 3204, Victoria, Australia<br>
