Digital Transformation for Schools –Why, What and How?

Seminar brief: What are the benefits of Digital Transformation in Schools and MAT’s, why should you consider it and where do you start? Senior leaders often get conflicting messages regarding what is possible and the best way to achieve it, often from sources with either vested interests or limited experience of successful practice in schools.

In this seminar, Richard Martin will explore: 

• How to define your requirements
• How to engage your stakeholders
• Where to get help and guidance

In this seminar we will look at how to identify priorities for your school/MAT and how to access details of best practice, tried and tested in other schools to guide your planning. We will look at ways to evaluate your current provision to plan a path to your desired vision and free tools for tracking progress and measuring outcomes.

Take home points: 

• An overview of a Digital Transformation Strategy process and how to create one for your school/MAT
• Tips on engaging stakeholders within your organisation
• Where to access free resources to help you plan, deliver, and review your digital Transformation

This session is for: School/ MAT senior leaders either looking to implement a digital strategy or those who have already started and are looking for additional support or validation.
