Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies of the UK Committee for UNICEF and Carnegie UK Trust’s recent report, Closing the Digital Divide for Good; and what steps his Department plans to take to implement the recommendations outlined in that report.

The Department’s investment in devices, platforms, training and digital services is being built on to develop a sustainable strategy for digital technology in education. As part of this, the Department will review the report and consider the implications.
