Education IT intelligence for South-east London

This pilot connects national education technology guidance to the SE postal area without pretending that a postcode is a council boundary or that every school has the same requirement.

01

What the SE area represents

  • Natural coverage label: South-east London.
  • Current public measurement ends no later than 27 August 2026.
  • Administrative-boundary claims: prohibited.

  • Connectivity capacity, resilience and support.

  • Device, licence and managed-service scope.
