Dissolving boundaries through technology in education: making a difference with ICT

Abstract

A total of 320 schools have participated in the Dissolving Boundaries programme since its launch in 1999. The number of schools involved increased from 146 in 2006-7 to 170 in 2007-8. All schools in Northern Ireland continue to be recruited through ICT advisors in all 5 area boards, which ensures an even spread of schools. The current cohort of schools in the Republic of Ireland has been recruited through 18 Education Centres, which cover a very large area of the country.
