To ask the Scottish Executive how much it has spent on the establishment of websites by schools since 2002.
Setting up and operating schoolwebsites is a matter for local authorities and schools. From 2004 to 2006 Learningand Teaching Scotland ran the “Scottish Schools Get Online” project to support schoolsacross Scotland in developing high quality websites which offer appropriate informationfor parents and others. In future it is likely that some schools will take advantageof the facilities offered by Glow to maintain a public web presence.
