Hi Joliette
Thanks for your message.
Yes, the figures are for the whole of France and are taken from a
government website, supplied by the "Ministère de l'Économie, des
Finances et de l'Industrie 04/2003".

While I was still looking for the budget figures above, I found some
other pieces of information.
* In 2003 and 2004 between 8 and 9 million Euros will be given to
special ICT measures
* 3 million of that will go to primary schools, especially those in
poorer areas.
* By 2007, secondary schools should have one PC for every three
pupils.
* By 2007, primary schools should have one PC for every ten pupils.
"L'effort est à porter, en priorité, sur les écoles primaires qui sont
peu équipées. Trois millions d'euros seront engagés dès cette année
pour améliorer l'équipement et la diffusion des nouvelles technologies
dans les écoles primaires. Ce budget sert avant tout à aider les
communes qui ont peu de moyens financiers." (L'AEF du 02/04/2003,
33002) "Entre 8 et 9 millions seront consacrés en 2003-2004 pour ce
plan" [...]. "D'ici 2007, les établissements du second degré devront
être équipés d'un ordinateur pour trois élèves et les écoles
primaires, d'un pour dix enfants", a précisé le ministre."

In 2002, the Ministry for Education released information about
progress in ICT in schools.
Between 1997 and 2002:
"Growth in the total number of computers
----------------------------------------
In secondary schools: from 12 pupils per computer down to 6;
In middle schools: from 26 pupils per computer down to 14;
In primary schools: from 100 pupils per computer down to 23.
Network connectivity
--------------------
Up from 32% to 100% in secondary schools
Up from 11% to 91% in middle schools
Up from 0.6% to 50% in primary schools
School web sites
----------------
More than half of all middle and secondary schools now have their own
web sites. Primary school web sites and networks are also increasing
rapidly."

I also came across an article about pupils' use of computers:

I hope this helps, Joliette. Of course I will pass on figures for
primary schools if I see them. It sounds as if ITC in primary schools
is about to get more attention than in the past, so perhaps there will
be more information forthcoming.
Please let me know if I can clarify anything, or if any links don't
work - I'd be happy to help.
Best wishes - Leli
Search strategy
I started by searching with combinations of:
TIC
budget euros millions etc.
but found that I needed to use:
TICE
and limit the search to government sites only.
So the key search was:
budget tice 2002 OR 2003 site:gouv.fr
://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=budget+tice+2002+OR+2003+site%3Agouv.fr&btnG=Google+Search&meta= |
