The Government’s Education Secretary, Nadhim Zahawi MP, has today made a new commitment for “every school across the country<\/em>” to be able to access “high speed internet<\/em>” by 2025, which is said to complement the wider \u00a35bn Project Gigabit<\/strong><\/a> broadband rollout programme. Funding will also be provided for related WiFi<\/a> upgrades.<\/p>\n

On top of this, the Government has also announced a \u00a3150m<\/strong> fund to “support schools most in need to upgrade their WiFi<\/a> connections<\/em>“. Over the course of the next three years, the Department for Education (DfE) said they would reach out to schools in priority areas to facilitate the introduction of faster and more reliable connectivity.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Project Gigabit aims to make gigabit-capable (1Gbps+<\/strong>) broadband ISP networks available to at least 85% of UK premises by the end of 2025 and then “nationwide<\/em>” by 2030 (progress update<\/a>).<\/div>\n

The funding mentioned above will include those in the DfE’s previously identified Education Investment Areas<\/strong><\/a>. “These 55 areas were first set out in the Levelling Up White Paper in February this year and refer to areas of the country where school outcomes are the weakest<\/em>,” said the government.<\/p>\n

Overall, it’s a good commitment, although we’re confused as to why they would commit to something as vague as “high speed internet by 2025<\/em>“, while at the same time only referencing “gigabit broadband<\/em>” more generally in the announcement (i.e. not directly alongside the 2025 date). We fear this could leave room for slower connectivity options to meet the related eligibility criteria, and we’re currently trying to clarify this.<\/p>\n

Nadhim Zahawi, Education Secretary, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Digital technology, and the data and infrastructure that underpins it, is changing the way we live, work, and learn. We need to use our experience from the pandemic as a springboard to embed new and better ways of using technology in schools, and across education.<\/p>\n

This new investment moves us a giant step forward to helping ensure that every school across the country has the best technology.<\/p>\n

Upgrading schools to high speed broadband, setting out clear standards so that schools know what technology they should have in place, as well as providing funding to support them in achieving this, is the latest way we are levelling up education across the country.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

At this point it’s worth remembering that the government, through its earlier Local Full Fibre Networks<\/strong> (LFFN) programme, voucher schemes and related follow-on programmes, has been working to extend gigabit-capable broadband connections (mostly via full fibre links) to UK schools since 2019. As a result of that, around 2,000 additional schools – at a cost of c.\u00a350m – in rural and semi-rural areas are expected to have already benefitted (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

However, data released last November by the UK Government\u2019s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) indicated that 3,835 UK schools were still in postcodes “that do not have access<\/em>” to full fibre broadband connectivity “or are currently not in areas of proposed commercial build within the next five years<\/em>” (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The above figure gives some indication of the remaining problem area, although it should be said that they didn’t factor in other forms of gigabit-capable connectivity, such as via Virgin Media<\/a>’s Hybrid Fibre Coax (HFC) network or leased lines. Some schools do make use of such methods, although these are admittedly much more common in urban environments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
