Abstract

The development of the Birmingham Grid for Learning is the largest schools ICT infrastructure project in the UK. The programme seeks to transform the school system, the role of teachers and to be an agent in the realisation of Birmingham's ambition to be a learning city. The underlying model for the organisation of the programme is to create and manage a creative tension between the people, content and opportunity within a learning gestalt, recognising an inner strength in its connectedness to a wide range of social and political as well as educational initiatives.
