The Connect the Classroom initiative provides DfE funding to improve your school’s wireless infrastructure. We support you through every step—from assessing eligibility and securing funding to designing and installing a robust network that meets the latest DfE standards. With our expertise, your school will benefit from seamless connectivity to enhance teaching, learning, and collaboration.
A reliable wireless network is vital for modern education. Schools rely on digital tools, interactive displays, and cloud platforms to deliver engaging lessons and effective administration. Without proper infrastructure, connectivity issues can hinder teaching and impact learning outcomes. Upgrading your network ensures consistent performance, supports future growth, and enables staff and students to make the most of technology in the classroom.
