Sumario:This article reports that the announcement by Great Britain's schools minister Andrew Adonis that a further £125m is to be made available to schools as electronic Learning Credits (eLC) will support educational publishers ahead of the launch of British Broadcasting Corp.'s (BBC) Digital Curriculum next year. Graham Taylor, director of educational publishing at the Educational Publishers' Council, said that the announcement provided some good news for publishers. Schools are being given money to spend on eLCs only. The BBC funding period is between 2003 and 2008. Now, schools have also been provided with funding to spend on educational software to August 2008.
