Hi all,

After some intensive lobbying it looks like I might be successful in
making I.T. a core subject in year 7 with a time alllowance of 2
hours a fortnight.

My curriculum director wants to know what are the essential skills
that a student should have achieved at year 7 level.

Some essential skills could include:
1. File Management
2. Word processing skills
3. Powerpoint presentations
4. Internet safety 

I need to write up a proposal by the end of the week, so I was
looking for some feedback as to what you would consider essential IT
skills.

Thanks for your help,

Joyce
