The Tech Factor team is asking schools to think about the technology they want but currently can’t afford - technology which will really enhance learning and prepare students for the future.

The Tech Factor competition is part of BT’s wider Tech Literacy initiative to inspire young people in the UK to embrace the role technology plays in their lives. BT also offers free teaching resources and volunteer-led training workshops through its Barefoot Computing Project, designed to help primary school teachers become more confident when teaching computer science and computing skills.
