Content, caching and kit all via The Big Bus Box

Aimed principally at schools and LEAs, The Big Bus Box is a software and server package that comes preloaded with all The Big Bus content published to date. The software creates colourful and interactive learning environments that fulfil the Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 requirements of the National Curriculum.

With The Big Bus Box, any important online curriculum content can be pre-stored locally, meaning that access to it is available without delay, as lesson plans dictate. Valuable bandwidth is, in this way, used most effectively and teaching can be enhanced by engaging web-based resources, even if Internet access is unexpectedly lost.

The Big Bus Box also offers complete flexibility to teachers, because the server can store ICT content from other providers without the need for additional equipment. It is flexible and does not limit schools to one provider or one product.

The server hardware is powered by Freedom2's caching technology, which enables teachers to manage their school's entire Internet and email resources. A three- year update and support deal is also available, which will ensure access to forthcoming Big Bus software.

The Big Bus Box can also be upgraded to incorporate 'Freedom2Teach', an Intelligent Internet Management system for ICT in the classroom.

Andrew Foyle, CEO of Imparo which controls both The Big Bus and Freedom2 said: "The Big Bus Box completely removes the fuss of buying ICT education products. It allows schools to use eLCs to access top quality educational content and an ICT management system, as well as the technology to run both."

The Big Bus educational software is also available via the Internet and CD-ROM.
