The Education Authority (EA) has launched the Education Information Solutions (EdIS) Programme, a digital change programme which represents a significant £750m investment that will support the learning experience for children and young people over the next 10 years.

EdIS will facilitate the transformation of learning and teaching through technology with continuous improvement at its core and will transform children and young people’s learning experience, develop skills for the future, support programmes to improve educational outcomes and facilitate professional learning for school staff.

EdIS will also deliver a rolling programme of devices for staff and pupils to support our children and young people to be the best that they can be and improve how school staff, parents, young people, stakeholders and customers access a range of important services. 20,000 state-of-the-art laptops have been distributed to teachers to date.
