   Computer Facilities

The School has five Computer Labs ready to accommodate 120 users simultaneously, while the existing infrastructure enables an increase in number. They are equipped with Pentium 4 workstations, connected to several file servers. All the Labs are centrally heated, fully ventilated and air-conditioned. Every computer, accessible by students and teachers, is directly connected to the Internet, allowing such capabilities as Internet browsing, Email, Ftp, IRC, telnet, audio and video conferencing. Appropriate tools are used in order to ensure that students work in a safe and protected environment. Input and output devices such as scanners, digital cameras, projectors and printers are available, and their use by students and teachers is encouraged.

Our School offers state-of-the-art equipment, and it is our belief that students should have access to the latest technology. All Departments of the GCS use IT to deliver course material. The School has assembled a team of specialists in order to work in areas such as long-term planning, data protection, training, technology advances and changes, and their effect on education and society. We intend to ensure that our School offers the highest secondary school education by taking advantage of new technology and appropriate methods of teaching.

The ability to use IT effectively is vital, both as an aid to study and in pursuing further education and/or future employment. Developing expertise in using these tools will enhance the students' learning experience. One of our aims is to help every one of our students become a competent user of Information and Communications Technology.
