SaN - Schools on the Net

Schools on the Net is a joint initiative of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and Deutsche Telekom AG, which was launched on April 18, 1996. The initial aim of the initiative was to connect 10,000 schools to the worldwide network, the Internet, within three years. Deutsche Telekom AG provided DM 36 million and the BMBF DM 23 million for this purpose.

After "Schools on the Net" quickly became a success story, the two initiators increased their commitment with a further DM 100 million. DM 60 million was provided by Deutsche Telekom and a further DM 40 million by the BMBF. These funds are to be used from 1999 to connect all schools in Germany to the network in the coming years. Additional sponsors are also to be recruited to realize this goal. (For detailed information please clickhere)
