| Amstrad Goes to School (CPC464 User) |
The value and performance of the CPC464 is the apple of teacher's eye in Thorpe Bay..... Local School Headmaster Mr Sandford (of Thorpe Bay High School) had the foresight back in February this year to order 10 Amstrad computers. These were to equip the School's newly converted Computer Studies room. On June 18th Amstrad delivered and our photographer was there to capture the school children's excitement. As the first computer was switched on, one of the pupils proved the company's claim of being ‘user friendly' by demonstrating his skills in programming to Amstrad's Sales Director Dickie Mould. After a month of use and ‘consistent daily hammering' as Mr Davis, the School's Deputy Headmaster put it, both the school and its pupils were obviously highly delighted. Mr Davis told us that the computers had been very well received - in his words ‘there aren't enough superlatives to describe the CPC464, our pupils are deriving tremendous educational value from the Amstrad computer'.
Amstrad sales director, Dickie Mould, provides a personal delivery service for the first CPC464 systems to enter the educational system. CPC464 USER (8/1984)
