A SCHOOL for children with special needs has won £5,000 to produced a website and newsletter to inform of pupils' achievements.

The project at Springwell Dene School, Sunderland, is using cash from the BT Schools awards programme.

The website and newsletter will be important tools for the students, who have emotional and behavioural difficulties. They will learn how to use digital cameras, sound clips and video streaming to express themselves on their website.
