ONE

a laptop for every child

a digital education . . .

. . . for the digital age

The vision of the ONE

The vision of the ONE is for every pupil to have their own laptop. With computers playing such a huge part in modern life, it is Elonex's goal to improve computer literacy across the nation.

Proficiency in ICT has never been so important, and modern ICT skills will allow the next generation to enter the business world better skilled to make a more valued contribution to the future economy and society. Have a look a what the government is trying to achieve here.

Giving everyone a fair chance

The cost of the ONE fits in line with the goal of the DCSF to close the gap in achievement between

those from low-income and disadvantaged backgrounds and their peers.

The ONE is designed to aid and encourage digital learning, which Elonex believes should be available to everyone, no matter what their circumstances. Elonex will therefore donate 1 ONE to underprivileged children from disadvantaged areas for every hundred sold.

Elonex will be working with the National Laptop Initiative to review the 'fair chance projects' and to distribute the ONE laptops. The NLI shares the same core beliefs as the NLI which aims to " bring personal computing and the digital world to everyone." You can find out more information about the NLI here.

Keep checking the vision section of the website for updates on fair chance projects, which will be in place for the start of the new school year 2008. To suggest your school to be recommended for a fair chance review please see here.
