The ICT Excellence Awards celebrate the innovative use of technology in transforming teaching and learning, while improving educational outcomes in Northern Ireland.
With the technology foundations laid by Capita and C2K over the last decade, Northern Ireland continues to push boundaries for innovation in Education. Capita is proud to sponsor the awards since 2015, recognising and rewarding the innovation within schools in Northern Ireland.
