Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 2:11 pm on 22 March 2017.
Thank you, Minister, for your answer. I hope you will be aware that the lack of broadband across parts of rural Powys is putting rural schools in particular at a significant disadvantage, which is having a knock-on effect on pupils’ education. Now, as I understand, there are 28 primary schools across Wales that still cannot access adequate broadband to enable them to teach pupils using the Hwb digital learning resource. Can I ask what the Welsh Government is doing to ensure that teachers can access the digital resource, which they need to deliver the full curriculum to their pupils?
