  I was lucky enough to attend a school which had one of the first 
computers in a school in the UK. I believe it was installed around 1965- 
it was well established by 1968 when I started. It had been donated by 
an insurance company.


I believe there were only about 4 schools with computers at the time - 
does anyone have any details?
