Havering Sixth Form College has been operating since 1991 with over 2,200 students and 200 staff members. Graham Francis has worked at the college since 2000 and helped establish various e-learning projects including using Asus EEE PCs, iPods, Sony camcorders, and Garmin GPS devices to support subjects like languages, sciences, and geography. Students provided positive feedback on the portable devices and their use expanded to include individual learning, classroom activities, and field trips.
