The Department of Education and Skills has asked the Educational Research Centre (ERC) to conduct an independent evaluation of implementation of the Digital Learning Framework. Stratford College has been selected to take part in this national evaluation of the Digital Learning Framework (DLF).
The DLF is a key part of the Department's Digital Strategy for Schools. Selected schools will complete online surveys: one for the Principals or digital learning team leaders, and one for all teaching staff.
Stratford College has just completed a major upgrade of its ICT infrastructure including a Windows 10 upgrade, a server upgrade and the implemention of its BYOD policy for Junior Cycle students to support dynamic learning in the classroom.
Our Digital Learning Framework plan is based on dlplanning.ie guidelines.
