Sustainability

Schools need to be aware of the need to replace their digital devices in the future, this may be because they are no longer receiving updates and therefore may not be secure, or due to damage and the devices being out of warranty.

We have been fortunate to have received funding to support our school's digital provision to date, however, schools should plan to become self-sufficient in their ability to maintain the device-to-pupil ratio as guided by Flintshire CC.

Nursey to year 2 - 1:3

Years 3 & 4 - 1:2

Years 5 & 6 - 1:1

Secondary school - 3:5 (60%)

This spreadsheet will support you in identifying the replacement costs of your schools devices; the guide for the pricing structure used is the Hwb pricing catalogue 2023/24. These costsings can be altered as shown in the YouTube video below.
