Many schools get it right, some make mistakes. Here are the top ten things you need to think about when looking to implement a digital learning solution in your classroom.

  1. Your reasons for implementing digital devices

There is a direct correlation between the schools that research where, when, how and why they are implementing digital devices and their successful digital journey. What are your reasons?

  1. Importance of engagement from your Head, Governors, leadership team, pupils and parents

Engagement from all stakeholders in the project is paramount to success. Make sure they are all engaged and involved in the project from the research stage.

  1. Having a digital champion and strategy

You have to have a champion, an individual that is passionate about your digital strategy and is committed to making the project a success.

  1. Your digital leadership team

Think about the roll out, make your mistakes with one classroom set as opposed to a year group or even the whole school.

  1. Roll out and implementation

Most schools we work with will roll out either one year group a term or one year group every calendar year. Make your decision based on internal experience and support services.

  1. Management of the scheme
