Leading the Use of ICT

To make effective use of ICT to support learning and teaching, practitioners need to feel confident in their own use of ICT, their teaching approach, their children’s ability to use ICT and the intended learning outcomes. Before beginning this programme of professional development, the school leadership team might want to consider:

  • What is it we want ICT to help our children to achieve?
  • How will we plan to get there as a school?
  • What do we need to do first?
  • What support, training and professional development are we going to provide?
  • What impact will we look for in the classroom?
  • How will we identify our progress and future needs?
  • How will we decide we all are achieving our intended learning outcomes?

Sharing and developing the outcomes of these questions with staff will help to establish a shared purpose for a focus on the use of ICT.
