DreamSpark extends free dev/design tool offer to high school students

I wrote a post about Microsoft's DreamSpark programme last February, when they started offering free tools for software development/design to university students.

Last night I saw a tweet from Ray Fleming, saying that the DreamSpark scheme has been extended to secondary/high school students. There's a comment on the post about it on the Microsoft UK Schools News Blog from someone at a school that has signed up, saying that the process was straightforward and that it has had positive results for students.

If you're an IT/ICT teacher, sounds like you should take a look at the DreamSpark site. If you're a student, talk to your teachers about getting your school signed up.
