Mr. William Shelton, junior Educa
43、tion Minister, announced that the Microelectronics education Programme (MEP) is to run for two more years with additional funding of at least 9 million. The programme began in 1980, was originally due to end next year, and had a budget of 9 million. This has been raised in bits and pieces over the p
44、ast year to 11 million. The programme will now run until March 1986, at a provisional cost of around 20 million. MEP provides courses for teachers and develops computer programme for classroom use of personal computers. It is run in partnership with a Department of Industry programme under which Bri

In that way, virtually every secondary school has been provided with at least one computer at a central cost to the taxpayer of under 5 million. The primary schools are now under way at the turn of the year. But, as Mr. Shelton adm
