Elsewhere,
a second Foreign Lanquage either Spanish,
German or French has been offered to all
pupils currently in Year 8, and in next
Year's 10, about sixty pupils will
continue with Spanish and a second
Foreign Language. People with some
knowledge of two foreign languages and
cultures will be highly thought of and
have a lot of educational holiday and job
opportunities denied to others.
Lets hope that Prescot pupils will make
the most of their new opportunities, so
long taken for granted in other parts of
the country.
New
Building for Languages Department
Any
time now, a start is to be made on the
construction of two new classrooms next
to the Languages area. We are
disappointed that this work has not been
completed already, but look forward to
the improved facilities they will
provide.
New
Technologies
A start
has been made on introducing
"Interacitve Whiteboards"
throughout the school, funded by the
Language College. These allow lessons to
be presented in an even more stimulating
and dynamic way then usual! Images from
CD Roms, web sites and computer
programmes can be projected for all the
class to see. The screen has special
properties, allowing the presentation to
take place at the touch of a pen.
