EdTech Demonstrators Programme
The DfE has identified 20 schools and colleges which have demonstrated excellence in their use of technology to support teaching and learning and have the capacity to further support other schools and colleges.
The programme is designed to boost peer-to-peer support on the effective use of technology and has now been tailored to help schools and colleges provide education remotely.
One of our customers, Broadclyst Community Primary School (BCPS), has been awarded EdTech Demonstrator School status by the DfE for their use of Microsoft technology.
They have put on a programme of free event webinars which schools can sign up to, details of which can be viewed on their website.
