VIRTUAL SUPPORT + DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION SERVICES
CHANGE MANAGEMENT & INDEPENDENT CONSULTANCY
Impartial consultancy for leadership to help educational institutions to create a holistic vision for teaching with technology which is designed to sit alongside a well-planned IT strategy.
Our Transformation Programme is a process during which the current and desired use of technology across an institution is evaluated, and the resulting data used to assist in the creation of a 3-year digital transformation strategy.
Drawing on information from the first two phases, a strategy is produced followed by a procurement process designed to reduce costs and establish a sustainable financial model.
TEACHING WITH TECHNOLOGY SKILLS AUDIT
The competence and confidence of teachers in using technology is one of the biggest factors influencing the effective use in schools.
A Tablet Academy Scotland digital skills audit can provide a snapshot of the current skill levels in order to shape an effective CPD programme.
We offer a basic audit and a detailed audit.
