Education Secretary to announce plans for digital revolution in schools at the Bett Show in London.
Delivering the keynote address at The Bett Show today (22 January 2025), she will set out expansive plans to harness technology to transform teaching.
She will tell the delegation how teaching will be revolutionised by the way the sector engages with tech at every stage - breaking down barriers to opportunity by ensuring every student and teacher can access the tools and support they need to succeed. From knowing what tech to buy all the way through to teacher training and classroom usage, she will set out a raft of measures that will cut through costly and time-consuming processes and help drive high and rising standards in education.
She is expected to say:
The world of even 5 years ago is gone forever, now we must seize the opportunities of the future.
We can hope for a brighter future for our children – delivered by a digital revolution in education.
I will take up this great new technological era to modernise our education system, to back our teachers and to deliver better life chances for our children across the country.
