Upgrade your WiFi for free with Connect the Classroom funding
The DfE has committed to investing £150m to enable schools to access the latest wireless technology by 2025. With Connect the Classroom funding you can upgrade your entire network and boost the number of access points and switches your school needs to support the increasing number of devices you have. The funding also covers any additional cabling or fibre connections you may need.
Schools currently eligible for funding include:
- All schools in priority education investment areas
- All schools in education investment areas rated as requires improvement or inadequate at last inspection
- Intervention schools
We can take care of everything for you!
