The important idea of our school which we would like to share with you is the idea of sharing knowledge with other schools and other people interested in IT technologies.

We are doing it in two ways:

• Firstly we are organizing IT conferences every year for all the educators across Poland to promote and develop new technologies which can be used during the classes.

• Our school is also only one school in the region who has signed the agreement in cooperation between town of Radom and Microsoft.

Vision of our school is to educate young people in a way that they will be ready to start their career in IT professions and other technical branches like power industry, in mechanical or mechatronical fields; the students who will possess the certificates which are valid all over the world.

As a school we are taking part in Comenius Laptop project - the aim of which is the idea of using IT tools on various classes and sharing the knowledge with other school-members of the project.

We are also working on the project related to issues how to save the energy. It is called Leonardo Transfer of Innovation.

As an interesting fact, we can say that we have implemented new Windows 8 operating system in one of our classrooms 2 weeks before its official release date at the end of October this year.

All the activities in our school are supported by new technologies (we have system based on virtual servers, Windows 2012 Server and Windows MultiPoint 2011 Server; we are also using VoIP phones and we have systems of certifications from CISCO, Microsoft, Novell and IBM).
