Caterham Wins ‘EdTech Oscar’

In recognition of our pioneering use of education technology, Caterham was one of a handful of UK schools to receive an EdTEch award at a ceremony held at the House of Lords this week

The ‘Edtech Oscars’, supported by Intel, were chosen by an independent judging panel made up of educators and edtech experts.

Caterham School was named as part of the prestigious Edtech 50 awards and features in a national publication that showcases imaginative uses of technology to support teaching and learning across the UK. The Edtech 50 report includes details of the schools’ work and has contributions from Ministers of Education from Wales, Scotland and England.

Edtech 50 Schools is organised by the Education Foundation and CEO & Founder, Ty Goddard said: “I would like to congratulate Caterham and all the Edtech 50 schools. The power of education technology provides significant support to help students learn, reduce teachers’ workload and save money. There is great potential for edtech to help make a difference but it needs to be the right technology, implemented effectively, and with support for staff. “

The Edtech 50 shines a spotlight on the schools leading the way, which we hope can inspire other schools across the UK.”

Intel, Edtech UK, JISC, Chartered College of Teaching, Net Support and the Independent Schools Council Digital Strategy Group are supporting Edtech 50 Schools.
