Welsh Government abandons free laptops for children |
Posted by: Susan Einhorn |
The Welsh Government has confirmed it will not pursue a policy of providing schoolchildren with free laptops. The previous Labour-Plaid Cymru coalition had run the idea under a £662,364 pilot scheme under its government programme, called One Wales. Labour now runs the Welsh Government, and Education Minister Leighton Andrews said he was not proposing to continue the project, launched in March 2010. |
