Greetings Wayne
We treat ICT as a stand alone subject at Thomastown at years 9 and Ten and
hence do not have this problem. We are however having a lot of trouble
integrating ICT effectively into the curriculum at years 7 and 8. We hope
this problem will ease in next year when all domains are teaching to VELS
standards.
