TEACHERS came together to see how technology could educate and inspire pupils in Furness.

Technology companies from across the country gathered at The Dunes hotel in Barrow for the IMET Exhibition.

Exhibitors showed off education technology and demonstrated the items to teachers from a number of schools in workshops.

Among the pieces of technology on show were programmable robots and virtual reality headsets for use in the classroom.

The event was organised by Hannah Croskell, the deputy head of Dalton St Mary's Primary School, who she wanted to 'inspire children in Cumbria' and enhance learning.
