Closing the digital gap
One of the key tasks of the strategy's Rural Access Gap program was the digital upgrade of more than 1,000 rural, remote and regional schools.
Delivering teacher devices
Giving teachers greater access to a portable device has helped them build digital skills, access student data, and streamline lesson planning.

Empowering our schools
Digital innovation continues to reshape our world, from the way we communicate and learn, to the jobs we do, and the decisions we make.
We must embrace that change, seize those opportunities, and prepare ourselves by delivering an education experience that is connected, informed and empowered.
Some of the initiatives delivered include the Rural Access Gap program, the Digital Maturity Planner, and more streamlined communication between schools and parents and carers.
