This downloadable resource is designed to help school leaders and digital strategy leads take a clear, structured approach to aligning technology use with teaching and learning priorities.
Too often, digital strategies begin with devices and infrastructure. Instead, this guide starts with pedagogy, helping schools clarify their purpose, evaluate their current approach, and make informed decisions about what to sustain, adapt or improve.
The guide includes:
- Five clear principles for building a digital strategy rooted in learning
- Practical advice on coherence, staff confidence, and purposeful use of tools
- Reflection prompts for leadership teams and professional development discussions
- A summary framework to support review and planning
- Guidance on how to review and refine your approach over time
This resource is suitable for schools at any stage of their digital strategy journey, whether reviewing existing provision or developing a new approach from first principles.
A SWOT analysis is a great way to start strategic reflection. This sample SWOT analysis of a digital strategy is intended as an illustrative example, as each school’s strengths, challenges and context will differ. Schools are encouraged to adapt the analysis to their own needs.
If you’re a school leader, digital lead, or part of a strategy group, feel free to get in touch if you’d like to explore ideas or discuss how to move your digital strategy forward.
