This has meant a great deal in allowing the teachers to provide more support to the home tutor. Faxes are also available and are regularly used in exchanging information and examples of student work. Desk top computers are provided to families from year 4 and, given resources, the school hopes to provide all families with access to the Internet. This allows transfer of work, exchange of ideas and support of learning in a manner that is quicker than traditional mail services. Direct one to one teaching by computer is not possible yet as a lot of families do not have twenty-four hour power.
Some families now have access to satellite dishes and get direct television transmissions.
This allows access to direct news, current events and entertainment. Such facilities were previously only available via radio, the school and from people visiting. The school conducted trials of direct television lessons beamed into the classroom in 1992. This was via satellite transmission but costs prohibited this being an ongoing facility. The school is equipped to produce 'live to video' productions.
