I have recently become a school governor, and
would like to make some recommendations to the 
governing body on the subject of educational 
software.

Could somebody who has looked into this area 
please give me some pointers on where to look for
software for the age range 4-8.

The likely platforms are...

1. PC compatible running DOS.
2. BBC model 'B' micro.
3. Other strange but cheap machine available in the UK.

I will press for the former on the grounds of 
compatibility and ease of supply, but there may be a 
local education authority policy or financial constraint 
which will exclude it.
