Four Luton students have been chosen to represent Britain at a European information communication technology competiton in September.

Project manager Toby Henness, and his team, Hugo Landau, Keith Kelly and Warren Fox, will compete in the two-day Euroskills contest in Rotterdam.

The Barnfield College students underwent two gruelling selection events before being chosen for the UK team, and will now go up against top teams from across the continent.

Pete Birkett, Barnfield's chief executive, said: "This is an enormous feather in our cap for the entire British ICT team to be chosen from our Computing and ICT Department. It underlines the quality of our teaching and our students."

The ICT competition will cover Microsoft, Open Source, Cisco and project management.

The event, which will involve hundreds of competitors in a variety of specialties, will consist of vocational competitions, demonstrations, interactive events and conferences.
