| For the pupils of Writhlington School, the exercise book and pen may soon be items only mentioned in their history lessons.

In what is understood to be a first for British state schools, all 1,400 youngsters at the Somerset secondary school will be given a Dell Netbook worth around £400 to use in lessons and for home work. |
