The synopsis begins as follows:
“Park Lane Primary School, Peterborough, demonstrates the importance of collecting, recording and analysing pupil data to monitor pupils’ progress more closely.”

I like technology but I don’t usually go in for the geeky custom PC stuff. This marketing video by Samsung, however, is hilarious.
