DfE - Connect the Classroom

How can CTC help you?

Getting your classrooms connected with the latest Wi-Fi systems could minimise disruptions, so you have more time to focus on the areas of teaching, learning and administration that can have the greatest impact.

Teachers and pupils often waste time waiting to get onto the internet, downloading files and attempting to play videos. The CTC scheme can help you change that, by introducing the latest education-first networking solutions.

What is CTC?

Fully funded by the Department for Edcation (DfE), Connect the Classroom is a programme which aims to help qualifying schools update Wi-Fi network infrastructure for a more education-focused approach. 

Is your school eligible?

If your school is eligible for the scheme, you will have been identified by the DfE and will receive an invitation to apply. Since the initial launch, CTC criteria has been broadened to now include:

• All schools in Priority Education Investment Areas
• All schools in Education Investment Areas rated 'Inadequate' or 'Requires Improvement'
• Unsure if your school is eligible? Refer to the map of Priority Education Investment Areas - Map Source
• You can also refer to the DfE's guide or give us a call on 01962 832 632
