Could I suggest that it might be worthwhile as part of this project to
consider eLearning systems like Moodle, where you could create lesson plans
that teachers could use, share, localise and create. It is easier to deploy
new lessons and also track the children's progress with a centralised
eLearning system like Moodle. Just a thought. It also helps them integrate
into the classroom.

Cheers,
Pia
