Report: open source in British schools: "The British Educational Communications and Technology Agency has released a glossy report [PDF] on the use of free software in British schools. The focus is mostly on costs, excluding the other benefits that free software can bring, but, within that limited scope, the report is positive. 'The annual total cost per PC was less for nearly all the OSS schools at both primary and secondary school levels. For OSS schools, cost per PC at primary school level was half that of non-OSS schools, and cost per PC at secondary school level was around 20% less than that of the non-OSS schools.' (Found on Paul Murphy's ZDNet weblog)."
