To address the issues of reliable WiFi support, the Department of Education has launched a consultation to make core digital standards mandatory by 2030. This means schools throughout the UK with underperforming networks will be able to take advantage of government funding through Connect the Classroom Programme to upgrade their IT infrastructure.
