Welcome to Memory4Teachers
Memory4Teachers is a major ICT initiative which involves the FREE provision of USB memory sticks for all Head Teachers, Teachers, School Business Managers and all support staff. The memory sticks feature full password security, virus protection and encryption software.
In addition the revolutionary memory sticks feature a bespoke user interface specifically designed to support teachers and schools on a daily basis. The user interface provides access to various software applications including a diary, timetable, lesson planner, calculator and even an MP3 music player.
Furthermore the interface is pre programmed with educational content and resources that support all of the national curriculum subject areas. We refer to this technology as a Portable Learning Environment as it enables teachers to conveniently carry a vast amount of educational content that can be used effectively in lessons on any PC, laptop or interactive whiteboard.
In addition to providing our portable technology for FREE to the education sector we also provide FREE online storage space for all of our users so that they can "back up" their memory sticks and store additional data securely online.
On this website you will also find a huge array of educational content and resources that can be downloaded to the memory sticks royalty free.
