“Trained as a maths teacher I was interested in the learning potential of the first microcomputers in schools (RM's 380z) and joined the ICL-CES project in 1982 to write computer awareness materials for 11-13 year olds. When CES was taken over by Acorn Computers I became their Information Officer, demonstrating our materials to teachers and advisers throughout the British Isles. In 1984 I went back to school, as the IT co-ordinator in a Surrey school;”
