ICT Support
The ICT Support Teacher positions were developed to support teachers with integration of technology into the classroom to better meet the needs of students' styles of learning.
The choice of employing teachers in these positions and not computer specific individuals is because of the working knowledge out ICT teachers have of the schools, curriculum and classroom dynamics.
