This wiki will explore the use of open source software in education and especially the teaching of ICT in a modern secondary school The best way to demonstrate why Open source software is so important in the teaching of ICT can be explored by looking at how a typical school uses this software in a very effective way. The John Bentley School which is a secondary school based in Calne, Wiltshire, has for many years advocated the use of Open source software, in the teaching of IT. Many other schools in Wiltshire have also taken on the use of Open source software as it has so many advantages in educating young people. Introducing young people to the lesser know Operating systems like Linux is of paramount importance.
