The school teaches computer science and provides Internet access to all students. They also use multimedia equipment in their teaching process (visit Digital History of Art pages, edited by one of the teachers, used in several Hungarian schools as a good source of demonstration on lessons and on-line learning: [http://www.bajabela.sulient.hu/regi/oktsany.htm] ) The school uses its school website as an important online database for teachers, students and parents, and also for representing our school life worldwide. It is a good tool to contact the former students wherever they live in the world.
