BETT 2009

Every January, an enormous show takes place at Olympia, a large exhibition centre in London. It's called BETT and is where all the companies who make ICT hardware and software for schools come to show off their products. Thousands of teachers and other people who work in schools come to find out what's new!

This year, Mr Taylor and Mr Noble set off to Olympia to explore BETT. We visited lots of the stands, including Sherston Software, Smart Learning, 2Simple, Promethean, and lots of other companies whose products interested us.

Below you can see one of the two large exhibition halls- the show covered both halls, on the ground floor and on the first floor balconies.

Do it Yourself!

Here's a game made by DRN.
