102. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if he will consider promoting the use of a certain technology (details supplied) in schools; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that, unlike the leading competitor, this technology is compatible with all Microsoft applications, is much more useful for training, education and everyday purposes and which is approximately half the price of the leading competitor; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As Minister I do not endorse or promote any product for use in schools. Schools may decide which technology to use to support implementation of the curriculum. The Professional Development Service for Teachers (Technology in Education) is available to advise schools on how to integrate technology in teaching and learning.
