A FLINTSHIRE MP has stepped up to ensure local children have the best possible access to education as lockdown continues.
Rob Roberts, who represents the Delyn constituency, has been able to procure dozens of laptops for schools in his remit who have children that are unable to get the best out of remote learning whilst schools remain closed to the majority of pupils.
Conservative Mr Roberts was made aware of the issue locally and reached out to schools in the area to see where help was needed most.
He told the Leader: “It occurred to me that IT equipment is one of those things that schools never quite seem to have enough of, so we called around all of the schools in the constituency and asked if they had enough stuff like laptops and devices for kids to be able to work from home both practically and effectively.”
