With £30,000 potentially available, the Institute aims to assist between 30 and 60 different computing-related projects. Schools, colleges and universities across the UK can apply for funds, of either £500 or £1000, to help them deliver projects that will enable learners to benefit from computing-related studies and are consistent with the aims of the Institute’s Royal Charter. Bill Mitchell, Director BCS Academy of Computing says: “The Institute has long been campaigning for better computer science teaching and this year, the centenary year of Alan Turing’s birth, we have really seen our efforts pay dividends.
