I'm Jon, and Im a Senior ICT Technician at a college in Leicester. Been in the education game full time since I left Uni in 2008, (with a one year placement from 2006-2007) funnily enough it's where I work now!

Hi All, My name is Mark. Years ago when I was a first year out Economics teacher, I ran a Computer Studies lab at a senior high school in Sydney Australia, coming to grips with a dozen brand new Commodore 64's. Now I head up international business for a 136 year old education company (not an Aussie company BTW) that just launched a new MIS for UK schools last month.

I love the energy and frankness of this forum. I want to get closer to the MIS action here.

Hi one & all,
I'm Gaz and work for a college based up in God's country - good ol' Rhondda Cynon Taff. I've been an IT support Techy now for just shy of 3 years, supporting Academic & student's alike.
I have 4 other counterparts at other college sites in South Wales, with an Assistant manager & IT manager above us. And together I think we're one of the smallest IT team's around in comparisons to other college's.

Recently it's been all change on the F.E. front with merger's and buy outs happening all over Wales due to the WAG's new policies.
Interesting times...

Great work on the forums.

That is an excellent avatar. The noise still gives me a little nostalgic thrill inside...


Welcome! May your guru meditation errors be few and far between.

Cheers @sonofsanta.
For all it's faults, I cant bear to part with my Amiga. Class machine. Though mine's still packaged away in the attic, yet to make an appearance.
