PedTech Impact Report
Launch event
The PedTech Impact Report was launched at Google HQ on the 14th Dec 2023.
ReWatch the key contributions on the day to understand the context of this groundbreaking report on the effective use of technology in everyday Teaching and Learning.
Why was the report commissioned and what benefits has it brought?
"Although it's taken us 15 years to reach this point, what we wanted to do with this report was to share it with all of you. So if you're thinking about starting this or you're already somewhere on the journey, hopefully, you can learn from some of the things that we've done, some of the research that we've undertaken, and some of the schools that we've visited"

Ty Goddard (Edtech UK) chairs a pupil panel discussion to hear what the pupils have got out of the PedTech approach to their everyday T&L
'I don't know whether any of you in the audience have had that feeling of, "I wish a colleague could have seen that'. I felt it strongly during the pupil panel we just heard'

What do the Teachers say about PedTech in action?
'We have really thought about teaching and learning and not about technology. This is just teaching and learning. We had a Technology for Learning policy at the very beginning when we first rolled out one-to-one devices because we felt that that was the right thing to do. But our work with Fiona made us think differently and think about this as just Teaching and Learning. So this is now written into the teaching and learning policy because we know that all the things the children do on those devices have a fundamental impact on that.'

'I don't know whether any of you in the audience have had that slight feeling of "If only I had so and so that I work with by my side, they could have witnessed that as well. They could have heard that, they could have been inspired by that? I felt it massively with the pupil panel we just experienced
