Mr Dreyfus said 75 per cent of the total number of computers, were installed at schools across Australia at the end of June, and since then many thousands more have made their way into classrooms.
"This is fantastic news for students in Isaacs, who will benefit from this investment for many years to come," Mr Dreyfus said.
"These computers are already changing the way our students learn by creating a range of great opportunities, including the ability to learn and collaborate with each other and to access resources from around the country and the world.
"The Government is committed to providing all Australian students in Years 9 to 12 with access to a computer, integrating digital technology into everyday teaching and learning.
"As well as providing computers for schools nationally, the Government is delivering digital learning resources and online diagnostic tools for teachers, students and parents.
"This Government continues to take the action required to make Isaacs schools, indeed schools right across Australia, great schools." Mr Dreyfus said.
The National Secondary School Computer Fund is part of the Federal Labor Government's $2.4 billion Digital Education Revolution, providing schools across the country with the essential learning tools for today's digital world.
