The archive has been stored in surplus space in an Essex school since 2010, but it is now needed and the archive must move. If you know of any opportunity to store a room's worth of paperwork, resources and equipment, please get in touch with me Richard Millwood ASAP!

New premises needed to store the archive

The archive fills a room, containing almost 300 boxes, 85 crates, 175 items of hardware and 13 filing cabinets.

The archive is directed and maintained by Richard Millwood of Core Education UK supported by Sandra Crapper, Maureen Gurr, Margaret Cox, Nick Rushby and Joy Hooper. The British Educational Suppliers Association (BESA) were archive sponsors in 2008 and Becta were sponsors in 2009. Much of the archive was gathered in the years 1990 - 2006 by Prof Stephen Heppell with Richard Millwood and stored at Ultralab at Anglia Ruskin University in Chelmsford. In its early days it was catalogued by Greta Mladenova and in 2006 Rex Wingate helped to organise the items in store. More recently, since 2011, Doreen Wright, Nick Rushby, Chris Monk and Joy Hooper have been helping catalogue the materials and develop policies.
