Owl Homes, the housebuilder responsible for ten new homes at the development off Quarry Road in Southam, donated £1,000 towards the school's fundraising.

The donation will go towards ensuring the school has enough iPads for one in every two pupils.

Rebecca Richards, Head of Long Itchington School, said: "We would like to say a huge thank you to Owl homes for supporting our school in this way.

"The new technology means so much to both children and staff and means that every class will have an exclusive use of an iPad to support children's learning."
