This area was initially established for our ICT Professional development cluster.

2004 - 2006 ICTPD Cluster

The Pt England ICTPD cluster consisted of 7 primary schools in the eastern suburbs of Central Auckland - Glenbrae, Glen Innes, Panmure Bridge, Pt England, St Patrick's, St Pius X and Tamaki Primary. Our decile 1a schools are no more than 5 km apart in a densely populated area where the housing is predominately state owned and the community groups are mostly Maori and Pasifika.
The primary schools are part of a larger cluster in the district, the Tamaki Achievement Pathway, and have been working together for schooling improvement. Communication and collaboration between schools was seen as essential to achieving improved learning outcomes for our students and ICT has been recognised as an important conduit for this.

We are using ICT to deliver schooling improvement by sharing and collaborating at all levels ï¿½ administration, teacher, student, board, community.

The ICTPD contract ran for 3 years, 2004 - 2006 and was facilitated by Dorothy Burt.
